  These plants perform extracellular digestion. That means these plants secrete digestive juices into their surrounding environment to break down organic matter into simpler substances. Thus, these plants absorb nutrients directly through their cell membrane.
Examples of saprophytes are Agaricus, Indian Pipe, Penicillium, Yeast, Mucor]]> 2023-09-21 14:47:53 UTC https://padlet.com/aarnavindurkar/9ieg0fp8q67shz3y/wish/2714779896 aarnavindurkar https://padlet.com/aarnavindurkar/9ieg0fp8q67shz3y/wish/2714811406   Parasitic plants are plants that take their nutrition from other living plants.
  Parasitic plants penetrate the other plant body by their specialized roots called Haustoria and then take nutrition from the vascular tissues of the plant(host)

  These plants are categorized into-
1. Partial Parasites
   These parasites do not harm their host and do not completely depend on their host for food and water.
  Eg.- Mistletoe, Dendrophthoe falcata, Viscum album, Santalum album, Loranthus

2. Total Parasites
    These parasites harm the host and completely dependent on their host for food and water.
   Eg.- Rafflesia, Cuscuta, Australian Christmas tree, Ghost plant, Indian paintbrush,

  For example- Algae and fungi are symbiosis where algae provides food and fungi helps algae to stay in moistur and water. They together are called Lichen.
Eg.- Lichens, Rhizobium with Mycorrhiza & Leguminous plants, Coral & Algae]]> 2023-09-21 15:14:50 UTC https://padlet.com/aarnavindurkar/9ieg0fp8q67shz3y/wish/2714825305 aarnavindurkar https://padlet.com/aarnavindurkar/9ieg0fp8q67shz3y/wish/2714837209   Insectivorous plants are plants that consume other smaller organisms to complete their nitrogen requirement. These plants live in nitrogen deficient soil.
  Eg.- Venus flytrap, Sundew, Pitcher plant ]]> 2023-09-21 15:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/aarnavindurkar/9ieg0fp8q67shz3y/wish/2714837209
