Electric Bushes and Trees

Is it silly to speak of plants anticipating a good watering or is it naive to think of a plant anticipating spring? Find out on today's Creation Moments Minute.

Scientists are learning that although plants do not have a nervous system, they do use electrical signals to respond to their surroundings in a similar way that our nervous system behaves. Such responses are very unexpected in what evolutionists consider simple plants. You can see it, for example, in how the Venus flytrap responds very quickly when its trigger hairs are touched by an insect.

However, if we see the creation as the work of a caring Creator Who endowed all of His creation with its own form of emotional sense, then even these limited plant responses are not unreasonable reflections of their Creator. The fact that we can recognize emotional response will hopefully enable us to see the importance of His love.
