If
Jean Baptiste de Lamarck had seen this plant he would have described the evolution of this trait according to the theory of inheritance of acquired traits. He would have said, whatever traits the Venus fly trap has acquired during its lifetime, it has passed it on to its offspring. For example, if the plant grew really healthy because it has received a lot of sunlight, perfect soil condition, and sufficient nutrients, it will pass on this trait to its offspring too and they will also be healthy.
