They are almost entirely restricted to habitats such as bogs, where soil nutrients are extremely limiting, but where sunlight and water are readily available. Only under such extreme conditions is carnivory favoured to an extent that makes the adaptations obvious. <br /><br />Carnivorous plants exist between these two extremes: the less limiting light and water are, and the more limiting soil nutrients are, the higher the optimum investment in carnivory, and hence the more obvious the adaptations will be to the casual observer. <br /><br />In general, carnivorous plants are poor competitors, because they invest too heavily in structures that have no selective advantage in nutrient-rich habitats. They succeed only where other plants fail. <b>Carnivores are to nutrients what cacti are to water.</b>"</i><br /><br />From:<br />http://www.creditbubblestocks.com/2012/06/behind-scenes-injection-molding.htmlCPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12701174164478027499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527840491496268397.post-3109368050137886962014-03-08T15:55:12.720-07:002014-03-08T15:55:12.720-07:00Mobile!
