This article explores the surprising similarities between plants and humans, challenging traditional perceptions of plant life. It reveals that plants possess senses like sight, smell, and touch, though they lack a nervous system, and can even perceive light and electromagnetic waves beyond human capabilities. The text also explains how plants navigate and orient themselves using internal "statoliths" akin to human balance organs, demonstrating their active, purposeful movements rather than passive growth. Furthermore, it asserts that plants exhibit a degree of consciousness and memory, capable of forming and passing down experiences to offspring through epigenetic mechanisms, though they lack the intelligence associated with a brain.
