Question

In a 3 paragraph essay explain how the Venus flytrap's body parts work together in a system to allow it to function.

Answer 1

The leaves of Venus' Flytrap open wide and on them are short, stiff hairs called trigger or sensitive hairs. When anything touches these hairs enough to bend them, the two lobes of the leaves snap shut trapping whatever is inside. The trap will shut in less than a second. The trap doesn't close all of the way at first.
