The correct option is C Leaf
Pitcher plants are several different carnivorous plants which have modified leaves (act as a pitcher) which are known as pitfall traps—a prey-trapping mechanism featuring a deep cavity filled with digestive liquid.
These plants trap harmful insects and kill them with the help of digestive fluid.
