Being sedentary organisms, plants are essentially stuck where they are planted and need to dynamically adapt to the conditions around them to not only survive but thrive. They do this by constantly detecting changes in their environment with a huge host of sensors in their leaves, stems, and roots. The detected environmental cues are then processed through complex systems of internal logic which triggers a variety of pre-programmed adaptive solut… More…
