Have you considered the functions of the plants of prey?
The sundew plant traps insects with its long red hairs. The tips of these hairs emit a smell that entices insects to visit. Upon an insect’s arrival, it gets stuck to the thick fluid on one of the leaves. Then the leaf closes around the insect, and it digests nutrients from the insect. By this hunting method, the sundew gains the essential proteins it needs for life.
What an odd way of hunting; the food has to come to it! How did all these mechanisms, the exact smell for attraction, the sticky fluid on the leaf, the closing of the leaf, the right digestion chemicals all come about? If one part of the mechanism was missing, no lunch for the plant! All had to be present from the start in order to work. Only the Master Designer could have set up this complex method of hunting.
