Do plants have brain?
 

Hi,

It may seem a silly question but I have heard that the plants have
"lesser brain", the seat of instincts.

Is it true?

Well they are intelligent enough to cover themselves with solar panels,
anyway . . .

Well I know they react to damage, compete with others, and seem to have a
will to live their time, so there might be something controlling these
processes even if just at the cell level.

Hmmm, after 9/11 everyone in the world expected another similar terrorist
atrocity in the US within months, it hasn't happened yet. Why? Because a lot
of the terrorist types are now engaged with well trained and well armed
soldiers in Iraq and a lot of the "terrorists" are being killed as opposed
to US civilians.
So is Bush an idiot or a damn good chess player?

Somebody has been pulling your leg.

The answer is NO.

Plants don't even have rudimentary nervous systems yet alone the need for a
brain to control one.

Unfortunately Dubaya does have a rudimentary nervous system and a brain,
albeit a poorly developed one.

The problem is when he tries to chew gum and make important decisions at the
same time he gets confused.

He is if he has you convinced that he didn't do "9/11" himself . . .

Plants can, and do, respond to stimuli. However this is only an indication
that they are alive and in no way suggests the presence of a brain in the
way that we understand.
Only intentionally silly questions are deemed silly.

Response to stimuli does not require a nervous system or a brain. Single
celled organisms respond to stimuli.

Even inorganic substances can respond to stimuli.
Ice melts when you apply heat!!
As if that's not enough, liquid water will even boil when enough heat is
applied!!

Well, isn't that special?

When you think they are talking back is when you really know you have a
problem!!!

So how do plants know which way is 'up', then, when they are germinating in
the dark . . . ? Does this not imply some sort of perceptive and
decision-making capability, albeit on a fairly mundane level?

No. It slightly goes against the grain to recommend anything by
Richard Dawkins (he is widely regarded as a pain in the a*** by
other scientists), but his books do explain how this for of thing
develops without consciousness.
