A COMMUNITY OF PLANTS- ALL ALONE. WHAT SHOULD BE THERE, HOSTILE OR HOSPITABLE?

When a plant species occupies a niche or measurable location,it may be a concept of a care taker or farmer. It thus speak about the mind of the care taker. But some other times a plant species may occupy a niche without the involvement of a care taker. It could be soil characteristics predisposing that plant species to predominate the entire niche. It could also be a wish or what I may describe as the ''mind" of the plant. Such plants may be endowed with chemicals or features that scare away other plants, and according to their"mind", they would want to live alone may be because they are expecting a larger adhering family. Yet some while fail to make friends with other plants of other species, rather make friends with insects and ants which symbiotically provides security for the plant against human and other animals intruders. In this example, who can tell what that precious thing the plant is protecting? These observations explains biodiversity, but who has given plants "mind"? Or is it that we know less than what is actually available?

(Part 6).   Our recent concern after we saw the need to trace our way to what went wrong, the intriguing question is: why did a loving creator created beside us invisible things so negative that they always overcome us by causing our death?And we also did remember that three Schools of thought were highlighted, one, the one time accident of all times (BIG BANG THEORY), for which Charles Darwin later postulation of the evolution theory is in agreement. Secondly, the lately postulation about comet love joy being the causative of life and intelligence, and thirdly, the story in the Bible about creation and creator-ship.If we can take responsibility of accepting shame for asking a stupid question,does it not sound like a man who has never seen his father and as yet not being interested in knowing how his father looks like but wit...

Newton Sokari Owner Discussion  4 Nov 2017 HOW PLANTS EXPRESS DISABILITY AND LAMENESS.(Part 4). It is appropriate to remember that whether a plant is disable or lame by virtue of its inability to solidify itself in soil and so feed itself and others does not mean that it has less or nothing to contribute to nature. At least, that plants have the green matter, that is chlorophyll to absorb, utilize and maximize solar energy so that there is no wastage. It is an epitome of optimization. Nature is clothed with utility, aesthetics or beauty and mysteries for which the green plant is a custodian.On the one hand,the friendship that binds the parasitic plant and the host, tells about the unity of purpose of the source of nature. Nevertheless, it seems obvious that even if we intend to ignore the hidden truth about why and how we just meet these things,what we cannot forget is the f...
