That's pretty ironic, are you're yet again dismissing what I've said as if I'm joking.
But no worries. Maybe some day you'll learn to consider other life forms in your calculations as well, instead of writing them off just because "they're different to me".
- uxcolumbo 4y agoI think you're trolling. You said plants and fruits are 'literally screaming in pain'. I don't think you know what the words scream or literally mean. If you're serious about what you said please provide your evidence based sources that claim that plants and fruits are literally screaming in pain.
- justinclift 4y agoOh, you mean stuff like this? https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aau9813 https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aau9813 There's only one person here trolling, and it's not me.
- uxcolumbo 4y agoThanks. Unfortunately the article is behind a paywall. The abstract doesn't mention anything about plants or fruits literally screaming in pain. It seems this study is showing how plants react to damage - in particular how glutamate is used for signal transmission. I also just did an experiment. I took an Apple and cut it in two. I couldn't hear the apple literally scream in pain. And I'm not deaf. Do you have access to the full version? If so, does the full version talk about plants & fruits literally screaming in pain? Or can you point to any other sources that claim plants & fruits literally scream in pain like we or other animals do?
