Solution
The correct option is C Pitcher plant Some plants like pitcher plants trap and eat insects, mice and frogs. They have a pitcher-like shape. The mouth of the pitcher is covered with a lid. They have a specific smell. The insects get attracted to the plant due to its smell. When they land on the mouth of the pitcher, the lid closes and the insect is trapped in it.
