The Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) is a carnivorous plant native to subtropical wetlands on the East Coast of the United States in North Carolina and South Carolina.[3] It catches its prey—chiefly insects and arachnids—with a trapping structure formed by the terminal portion of each of the plant's leaves, which is triggered by tiny hairs (called trigger hairs or sensitive hairs ) on their inner surfaces. • When an insect or spider crawling along the leaves contacts a hair, the trap prepares to close, snapping shut only if another contact occurs within approximately twenty seconds of the first strike. Triggers may occur if one-tenth of the insect is within contact.[4] The requirement of redundant triggering in this mechanism serves as a safeguard against wasting energy by trapping objects with no nutritional value, and the plant will only begin digestion after five more stimuli to ensure it has caught a live bug worthy of consumption (from Wikipedia). • Credits for the text above: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus_f... • Subscribe: https://bit.ly/2UZPugh • Support us (PayPal): [email protected] • Our Facebook page: / azflorapage • Cooperation: [email protected] • #flytrap #carnivorous #plants #azfloraeng
