What is the difference between animals and plants?
-
I once heared this question, and I am honest, I did not know. So I ask you to be honest and to answer, before looking in books ore to ask wikipedia ore something else in the internet. It's such a simple question, I was not able to answer, but I would like to know - is it just me??
One of the most basic differences between animals and plants is at the cellular level. Plant cells have rigid cell walls, and animal cells have flexible cell membranes. Animals have nervous systems, plants don't.

Animals don't have roots ;) regards, Mircea Many people spend their life going to sleep when they’re not sleepy and waking up while they still are.

An aside: When humans forget that they are plants and animals, they become pests. I would initially refer to sentience, or a brain, but do coral have brains? Good question. Animals can move to another location. Plants require intervention to change location. That's my guess. [edit] but then lilies can move around.. so dunno [edit] This statement is false. -- modified at 14:30 Saturday 15th July, 2006

Neither a plant nor an animal. Its a fungi. Different class altogether. Technically not alive in the traditional sense. This statement is false.

Corals are emotionally disordered animals. They should be removed from the category. Animals who spend their whole life in the same place place are "couch" potatoes. Thus are plants. :-D regards, Mircea Many people spend their life going to sleep when they’re not sleepy and waking up while they still are.

You are very near with the moving!! So, if we need some energy, we do what? And what do plants do??;)
Well, not all plants use chlorophyll, there are some plants they discovered down deep in the ocean where there is no light, and they synthesize what they need from the chemicals found around them. So... light is out of the question. Do Coral eat? Venus fly traps eat flies. I am so trying not to google. :doh:;P) This statement is false.

You say no, but it is yes. Light is the answer, as I know. Plants get their energy from light - animals from plants or other animals. The trap is - there are not only plants and animals on our planet. Mashrooms are a third one, and maybe you talked about another one! :rose::rose:

Yeah, I was watching Discovery Channel, or one of those, the other day and they were surprised at the new species they discovered living without light, plants. They gathered what they needed from the chemicals in around them, also there were some species living in like 500 degrees F as well. I think our current clasifications might be a little limited. What about the Venus fly trap though? That one is a plant that eats animals, well, insects. This statement is false.
