Solution

The correct option is D Insectivorous
Insectivorous plants are green plants but insectivorous habit develops due to deficiency of nitrogen in the soil. They usually grow in swampy areas, e.g., Nepenthes or pitcher plant. These plants have modified leaves to form a vase-like structure to trap the insects.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
