Default plants have organs? Genome mapping of organs, not the entire body tomato existed before

While I am on this percentage, a cool question comes to mind. A question not
at all obvious. In animals we have organization of cells into tissue and
organ. But do we have the same sort of organizations in plants? Do plants
have organs?


I suggest you have a look at:
Introduction to Plant Physiology
William G. Hopkins
John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York

In the past 5 years I have been exploring the Inverses or Reverses of plants
to animals. Example: plants breathe in CO2 and expel O2 whereas animals
do the reverse.


Plants also require oxygen.

Another Example: animals depend on plants for food


Apart from the carnivores.

and the reverse is true that plants depend on animals for food via
fertilizer and decay bodies.


ITYM mainly other decaying plants.

Another example: plants depend on carbon element for their support structure
and animals depend on calcium for their support structure where we can sort
of say that carbon is the inverse or reverse of calcium.


What about sharks? Or single celled animals and plants?

Now I wonder if another one of the inverse or reverse situations exists in
plant to animal cell organizations. Whether animals must have cells
arrayed into organs but plants do not and whether plants have a cell
arrangement that is altogether very different from that of animals and can
be considered a inverse or reverse.


I think you really need to read a Biology 101 text book.
