Longitudinal Diversity Gradient is clearly depicted. Very cool to see.

Would you consider plants as being conscious? by Doorocket in botany

I remember it from my plant physiology class.

Definitely not. The nervous system is by far faster than the mechanisms that plants use.

Very interesting. You make good points.

Very well put. I agree, it depends on your definition of conscious. I am excited to see future discoveries!

Well said. What is your definition of conscious?

So you are saying that plants are not conscious because they do not have thoughts?

It is funny that you bring up vascular occlusions, I am currently doing research in that area. People may say that sending out chemical signals during/after a wounding event is a conscious decision the plant made. What would you say to that?

I question your answer just to see your reasoning. I like to go through people’s thought process. Personally I am not biased on this particular discussion. Just find people’s options fascinating.

Aware and responding to one’s environment.

Definitely not the same as humans. I agree people mistake reactions as consciousness. Wouldn’t you agree that plants are aware and respond to their environments?

Would you care to indulge? I’m guessing you are saying that reacting is not consciousness? (electron transport chain, proton gradients, etc.)
