There should be no one in the world who knows most about plants but "us"!

Recently, he was scanned by Zootopia.

The editor was also haunted by the clever and cunning fox Nike.

Among the animals except foxes

There are many clever and cunning kinds.

Such as the editor's rabbit.

You can always find a chance to get out of the cage.

But did you know that many plants also have extraordinary intelligence?

Suicidal plants

Have you ever seen a plant commit suicide?

Many Australian plants, such as mountain dragon ophthalmology, Australian grass trees, and so on, deliberately accumulate more and more fuel substances in the body, and then deliberately absorb more and more sunlight, and set themselves on fire with a bang.

What is its suicidal motive? The investigation of the case found that the result of this self-sacrifice was that it burned all the vegetation around it, vacated a piece of open space, and left rich plant ash as fertilizer, so that the seeds previously buried in the ground could thrive!

Plants with their own scary slides

A particularly "cunning" carnivorous plant has been found in Venezuela, which uses wet cilia to attract insects into its designed "trap".

Studies have shown that the moist cilia of the drooping sun bottle grass can lose the grip of the sticky pad and small claws on the insect's feet, and its inner surface is like a waterslide, causing the sticky pad on the ant's feet to lose its grip and slide into his bowl.

Even in dry weather, the drooping sun bottle grass can take full advantage of its "waterslide" trap, which can absorb water from its "small reservoir" and transport it to the ciliated parts.

Sweet temptation

Pitcher plants can secrete a substance similar to nectar, luring unguarded prey into a "pool of death" full of enzymes. In the Pool of death, there are many sticky drooping main veins that make it almost impossible for prey to escape once they fall into a trap.

A giant pitcher plant found in the Philippines is 30 centimeters in diameter, enough to devour rodents. And then get nutrients from decomposing prey corpses. But usually, pitcher plants mainly feed on insects.

Camouflage

The dorsal side of the fishtail appendage of cobra bottle grass secretes a lot of molasses and gives off a strong smell. Insects such as wasps are attracted to the mouth of the bottle by the smell. Insects crawling along the nectaries may be introduced into the flask.

On the other hand, the transparent markings in the bottle will confuse the insects, causing them to mistake them for an exit and be trapped in the bottle.

Due to the waxy top of the bottle and the middle and lower part with downward hair, the insect will gradually fall into the digestive juice at the base of the bottle. After that, the body is digested and the plant can absorb the decomposed nutrients.

Self-emptying predation

Raccoons set underwater traps in a clever way. It expels water from small airbags and lowers the internal air pressure.

Water fleas or other bugs swim out of date, bend the tentacles on the airbag, open the valve, suck the water in under low pressure, and prey enter the river. Within 0.05 seconds, the portal recloses. Then the cells in the airbag begin to drain out again, forming a new vacuum environment.

Concluding remarks
