Why does a venus fly trap close like it does and trap stuff?
Frank,
AZ | Venus flytrap...reply
Now I don't know a whole lot about venus fly traps, but I know that
they are one of them few plants that uses protein as a food source.
Insects get trapped in it because it is very sticky, and then it
closes so that it can eat the insect.

Watch for an upcoming episode of DragonflyTV, where Mia, Maddie,
Ally and Mikki investigate this very question. Then try your own
investigation next Fall!

You've featured kids SCUBA diving both on the show and in ads which
really surprised me. My son wanted to begin diving with me and I
was told by his doctor that diving with compressed air is extremely
dangerous for anyone under 17. Numerous other doctors I talked to
confirmed this including at the Hyperbaric Medicine unit at Hennepin
Cty Medical Ctr. Problems may include stunting of bone growth, cranial
lesions, changes to kids personality and loss of memory, and possibly
death if the PFO (hole in heart) has not fully closed by the time
they begin diving.

response
Certainly, if you or your health care provider have any reservations
about your child's safety during scuba diving, your child should
not dive. Megan and Ian (the divers featured in our show) were certified
divers before they approached DragonflyTV, and had the blessings
of their parents, physician, and scuba instructor. The practice
of diving is self-regulated, and the National Association of Underwater
Instructors (NAUI) requires a minimum age of 12 to participate safely
in underwater activities, and then only with a scuba certified adult.
We conveyed this in our show. Again, make no decisions about scuba
diving safety for children without your health care provider's input.
