Plant Mimics

The video explores how plants use mimicry to survive. Orchids mimic female bees to attract male bees for pollination. Carrion flowers mimic rotting meat to attract flies, which help in pollination. Passion flowers use mimicry as a defense mechanism by producing false butterfly eggs to deter egg-laying by butterflies. Mimicry serves both reproductive and defensive purposes in plants.
