Plants can grow quickly or accurately, but not both
> How are plants, with no advanced nervous system, able to gather information about their environment to guide their behavior, planning and flexibly executing movement? Sound, maybe. Or chemoreception. Possibly even eye-like structures.'eye-like structures'?!https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2016.07.008:
Although plants are sessile organisms, almost all of their organs move in space and thus require plant-specific senses to find their proper place with respect to their neighbours. Here we discuss recent studies suggesting that plants are able to sense shapes and colours via plant-specific ocelli.Cannot access the study but this sounds fascinating!
