What are a consumer and a producer?

Is the Venus Flytrap a Producer or a Consumer?

  • I was learning plants and animals as a reviewand i asked my teacher if the Venus Flytrap is a producer or consumer. My teacher say it is a producer but my friends say its a consumer. Then i asked two scientists, one of them said its a producer but the other said its a consumer so now im in a prdicament. IS THE VENUS FLYTRAP A PRODUCER OR A CONSUMER?

  • Answer:

    I would say it is both. It's a producer because it's a plant that undergoes photosynthesis, so it makes its own food, but it also eats bugs, so it's a consumer. I don't think it has to be in only one category.

A venus flytrap is both producer because it produce food, and consumer because it eats insects. But I can say that it is more of being a consumer because it consumes more than producing food.

I think a venus flytrap is both producer because it produces food, and a consumer because it eats insects.
