🌱Carnivorous plants have evolved from regular photosynthetic plants in nutrient-poor environments.
🦴Carnivorous plants repurpose genes to create traps and obtain nitrogen, a crucial nutrient for growth.
🌿Carnivory has evolved independently in multiple plant lineages, with at least six separate instances of plant carnivory.
🔬Scientists have studied the genomes of carnivorous plants to understand the genetic changes that led to their meat-eating abilities.
🌍Carnivorous plants are adapted to their specific environments and have unique strategies for capturing and digesting prey.
