How does a Venus flytrap know when to snap shut?
It actually counts touches before trapping its prey!Here’s how it works: the plant has tiny trigger hairs inside its leaves. If an insect touches one hair, nothing happens. But if it touches two hairs within 20 seconds, the Venus flytrap snaps shut, trapping its prey! This two-touch rule helps the plant avoid false alarms from raindrops or debris. It’s a genius energy-saver for a hungry carnivorous plant!
