Solution

The correct option is B Pitcher
Pitcher plants are insectivorous plants. They capture and digest insects to get nutrients like nitrogen and so can live in nitrogen-deficient soil. But plants like Pea, Rafflesia, Cuscuta cannot digest insects to get nutrients. They depend on soil for nutrients like nitrogen, etc.
