Detecting new carnivorous plants

Scientists at the Grenoble University (France) have discovered an aquatic carnivorous plant, which draws nutrients from "prey" in a unique way.

Underwater carnivorous plants.

This species called Bladderwort lives in the water, it absorbs nutrients from its prey with very sophisticated traps, very fast, effective and takes only a thousandth of a second to attract prey at a distance. certain ways then slowly digest nutrients.

Traps have valves set up by many glands, the inside of the trunk will continuously pump water out, and it will create a pressure inside the plant's bag.

When the prey passes through it will create a small vibration, and stimulate super sensitive hairs that trap the water and the prey. Next it will secrete digestive enzymes to dissolve the prey, and the nutrients from this prey will be consumed in a few hours.

After that, the tree opened again and poured in water, inflating the trap as it was originally.

The "hunting" of the plant has given scientists the idea of ​​creating miniature medical devices that can draw less blood than current diagnostic tests.
