Description acceptable. Members of the genus Roridula exhibit a borderline form of this process that involves symbiosis with species of assassin bugs. This process was first detailed in an 1875 book by Charles Darwin describing years of experiments studying activity in the Drosera genus. Organisms in the genuses Utricularia and Dionaea have evolved a thigmonastic response to aid this process. The cost–benefit model posits that modifications for this process explain why it is only observed in sunny, moist, and nutrient poor areas. A method for performing this process used by Nepenthes jamban involves a combination of sticky mucilage and a pool of enzymes. “Lobster-pot” and “pitfall” traps are used by some species exhibiting this behavior. For 10 points, name this method of deriving nutrients used by the Venus flytrap. ■END■
