... the only difference between carnivores and plants is that the latter eat meat through __ranslator_ organisms. Maggots and bacteria __re-chew_ dead animal matter, which plants then absorb as nutrients. So if eating pre-chewed food does not change the fact that a baby is human, why should a plant be any less of a carnivore because it out-sources the digestion of animal protein to organisms of decay?
