The plant intelligence

The plant intelligence

Below this text is the film about plant intelligence. That thing has brought in my mind one really interesting thing, and that thing is, that could there be some other intelligent species on Earth, and when we are looking at this film, we must realize, that even if the intelligent organism would have the high-level of intelligence, that species can be very different than we are.

In some theories, the intelligent organism can be a group of vegetables, which are connected with together. In this version of the hypothetical intelligent species would have a modular structure. That means that even if every single unit of that organism has only a couple of hundred of neurons, that species would be in a very large area.

This is the thing that can compare with the electric network. If there is only one single unit, what makes the electricity, would one error in that unit cause terrible problems? But if the system would contain multiple small size power units the loss of a single unit would not be seen by users.

This is the origin of the theory of intelligent grass. In that case, the species would have multiple units, where is a couple of the neurons, but there would be billions of those units, that organism can lose a couple of them.

The idea of this thing is together those units can be very intelligent. And those species could grow bigger than many people can even think. And if we would someday find that kind of species, that could revolutionize our knowledge of the intelligence.
