उत्तर
Insectivorous plants are green plants that perform photosynthesis to prepare their own carbohydrates, making them autotrophs. However, they grow in nitrogen-deficient soil and must trap and digest insects to fulfill their nitrogen requirements. Because they produce their own food but depend on insects for essential nutrients, they are called partial heterotrophs.
