Yes.
Macroscopic means visible to the unaided eye.

Yes the venus fly trap is a macroscopic organism because you dont need the microscope to be able to see it
other examples include the water flea, tadpoles and other common objects such as balls etc.

Hello, According to this site:
http://www.sacsplash.org/mather/lessons/lesson5.htm
I don't think that a venus flytrap would count as a macroscopic organism. The site gives examples of fairy shrimp and tadpoles. Also, that macroscopic organism refers to things from .25 mm wide to 50mm wide, which I think is about two inches. And that larger animals have no such classification.

Yes. Although they are very tiny plants, you do not need a microscope to see them... just a magnifying glass.
