Mother Nature made it grasping (7)
I believe the answer is:
tendril
This clue could be a double definition.
'mother nature' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'it grasping' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'made' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tendril that I've seen before include "Plant's climbing aid" , "Part of twining plant" , "Threadlike extension of a plant" , "Feature of plant" , "Twisted lock of hair" .)
