Detailed explanation-1: -Pitcher plants grow in nitrogen-deficient soil and catch insects in a modified organ resembling a trap to provide them with the nitrogen and other nutrients they need to survive. The dead insect in its trap supplies the nutrients necessary for the plant to operate normally.

Detailed explanation-2: -Explanation: The pitcher plant is an insectivorous plant that cultivates in soils that lack in ‘nitrogen’. As they grow in soil without the nitrogen, they fulfil their nitrogen from the insect proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nitrogen is the key nutrient that the pitcher plants are after, since there is very little available in bogs for uptake by plant roots. About 80 percent of their nitrogen comes from the prey digested in the pitchers and only 20 percent from the root system.
