The capturing and digestion of insects by a pitcher plant is a special form of nutrition that is
heterotrophic
saprophytic
chemosynthetic
autotrophic
Correct answer is A
Heterotrophic nutrition is a type of nutrition in which an organism obtains its food by consuming organic matter from other organisms. In the case of pitcher plants, they capture and digest insects as a source of nutrients to supplement their diet, especially in nutrient-poor environments. This carnivorous adaptation is a specialized form of heterotrophic nutrition, as the pitcher plant relies on consuming other living organisms (insects) to meet its nutritional needs. The pitcher plant is a carnivorous plant that has modified leaves forming pitcher-like structures.
