Answer:

In the passage, the two types of carnivorous plants described are Venus flytrap and pitcher plant. These two plants are similar in the sense that they belong to the Dionaea muscipula and Sarracenia genera, respectively, of the family Sarraceniaceae. Both plants are found in temperate regions of North America and feed on insects and other small animals.

Both types of plants use a similar mechanism to capture their prey. The Venus flytrap has a set of traps with strong, sharp hairs on the inner surface that trigger the trap once the hairs are touched. The pitcher plant, on the other hand, has a deep funnel-like structure with slippery walls that prevent the prey from escaping once it falls inside.
