A. GROWTH is a life characteristic that is illustrated when a Venus flytrap produces new leaves from the step tip.
Venus flytrap, unlike many other plants, does not have a central stalk or trunk nor intermediate tissue between roots and leaves. Instead, a Venus flytrap is composed only of leaves where each leaf grow its own single structure roots.
Each new leaf shares some tissues with existing leaves until it grows its own roots. Venus flytrap is self-sustaining. Its leaves can be separated from other leaves and potted to become a separate plant after developing its own roots.
