Top 5 most popular plants predators grown in Russia

Swamps in the dense forests and dark thicket become a haven not only for wild animals, but for rasteniy- predators. They eat insects, to get to their development essential trace elements, which they lack.

Biologists explain this phenomenon is simple. Plants are living almost in the water, often far away from the light, and lack of phosphorus and nitrogen that is rich soil.

Therefore, the insects are a good food supplement, in turn, the water in which they grow, helping to assimilate good organic food.

The most popular rasteniyami- predators that grow in Russia are:

Insects think that it is transparent drops nectar, sit on the sheet and firmly adhered. The victim begins to beat, trying to free herself and dies in this terrible cocoon of sticky mucus.

Once the insect is trapped, sundew leaf absorbs it. Mortal bag allocates digestive enzymes, digested by insect about one day.

· pinguicula

Oily lubricant like a dense continuous layer of adhesive covers leaves another hazardous insect rasteniya- pinguicula. Distinguish it from special glands, which are called traps.

Next to them are arranged and digestive gland. pinguicula victims are crawling insects. They stick to the leaves, and then on the general scheme for all predators.

Sheet converted into tight pouch in which the victim is digested.
