His Undulations
It will forever haunt me that I cannot share this joke with everyone I meet
I will be reblogging this every time it comes on my home page, thank you.
He’s so cool

Plants what now
There needs to be more research done into this, and as of now we can't say why the sounds happen but. WHAT.
I knew they could hear noises but apparently they MAKE noises too

SHUT UPPPP
also some plants can see. as it turns out. Shouldn't be surprising because they are literally covered in light sensitive cells that direct them toward sunlight, but, yeah, some of them have versions of those cells that can see in some fashion or another.
we found this out fairly recently (last 3 or 4 years) because the plant boquila trifoliolata can grow its leaves different shapes to mimmic the plants around it and we thought maybe they did it by touch or something so we did an experiment with no touching and ruled that out, and then we thought maybe it was some kind of pheromone thing or something but in another experiment it copied the leaf shape of a plastic plant, so
anyway plants can see. some only enough to tell where the sunlight is strongest, others... more than that.
Yeah Boquila trifoliolata is the mimic octopus of the plant world.
Examples of Boquila trifoliolata mimicking the leaves of other plants. Yellow arrows point to leaves of Boquila trifoliolata that are mimicking other species in A-G. Image H shows what Boquila trifoliolata leaves look like when they’re not mimicking other plants. Ernesto Gianoli/Trends in Plant Science
Also it's not just reacting to plant pheremones or something like that... it will mimic plastic plants.
Some black magic levels of precision.
