Is the venus fly trap a predator?

Question

home work

Answer 1

No. It does not hunt, chase and stalk down its prey. Only animals (including people) can be predators. The Venus Fly Trap IS carnivorous (meaning it relies on meat for nutrition) and it does trap its food, but it has no brain or nervous system. Hope it helps.

Answer 2

It's later on in the food chain, so I would say yes.

Answer 3

Not sure if it is a predator, but here's a link to info about it.  Good luck

Answer 4

I thawt that the word predator involved motion (physical ambulation)?

and a venus fly trap - altho carnivorous - is not a predator, by virtue of it's fixed physical attributes. . .

Answer 5
