Plants, according to Jack C Schultz, “are just very slow animals”. They hunt for food, evade enemies, fight for territory and even have senses. Through photosynthesis, plants respond to light. Although it behaves differently from human sight, plants can, in fact, “see.” Certain plants respond to the sound of caterpillars “munching” with chemical defenses. The Venus Fly Trap responds to touch by closing its trap. Plants even communicate with one another through their roots, sending and receiving a variety of chemical cues.
About the Imaginary Anatomy Series:
Our world is full of wonders, both externally and internally. Every organ, every ecosystem, every cell is perfectly designed, astonishingly beautiful and completely interdependent. If we could truly acknowledge the miracle of a single tree, our entire life would change. The breathtaking beauty of the natural world is also within each of us. We are walking miracles.
Through this series, I hope to educate, to inspire, to reacquaint people with the profundity of the perfectly ordinary. Above all, I hope to help people appreciate their own bodies and their connection to the world around them.
