The Venus flytrap is a plant that feeds on insects. When a fly lands on the leaf, the leaf folds very quickly and traps the fly. The leaves produce enzymes which digest the fly. Which characteristics of living organisms are involved?

• excretion, growth, nutrition

• movement, excretion, nutrition

• movement, sensitivity, growth

• movement, sensitivity, nutrition
