Respuesta :
Well i know with carniverous plants (mainly venous flytraps) that they trap insects and release a body acid to break down and digest them
Parasitic plants: hooking up with host plant stealing sugars.
An indirect parasite, steals sugar from mycorrhizae
Other examples: mistletoe, dodder- no longer photosynthetic
Some species have roots that function as haustoria (nutrient absorbing projections that enter the host plant)
Carnivorous plants: nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus from insects- carnivorous plants need nutrients because of their nutrient poor soil
I hope this helps! ♥
