Boquila trifoliolata plants grow in the forests of Chile and Argentina. What distinguishes these plants from other plants is the ability of their leaves to change their forms depending on the environment. We know that some plants climb on trees and twirl around their branches in order to obtain sunlight and support their expansion on the branches. This is normal, but the plant Boquila trifoliolata is working to camouflage its leaves in line with the forms of leaves surrounding plants.

Usually, camouflage in the neighborhood requires touch so that the organism can analyze and copy the entity that wants to camouflage it, but these plants are able to monitor and copy the shape that you want to mumble to him without physical contact with him, which opens the possibility that these plants can see (an electromagnetic monitoring of the reflection of the photons around it ).

More research is under way to verify the hypothesis of the ability of these plants to see, but to this day we do not know how these plants can know the shapes around them.

The evolutionary benefit of camouflage is to protect the leaves of this plant from the insects that eat the leaves. It is not a new organism in nature, and we call it Batesian mimicry where weak beings defend themselves by imitating organisms considered poisonous and harmful to their direct predators.

But the ability of these plants to see a new phenomenon is not yet well understood

Don't look now, but that tree may be watching you. Several lines of recent research suggest that plants are capable of vision—and may even possess something akin to an eye, albeit a very simple one.

But we Muslims we know everything before 2000 years

Plants have all the same five senses as we do, plus about another 15 others. Without a doubt they can see. This has been verified by numerous studies and can be read about in detail in the books: What a Plant Knows by Daniel Chamovitz and Brilliant Green by Stefano Mancuso.

I studied under Mancuso, where we often talked about the various senses of plants. The ability of several plants to mimic the leaves of others is a defense mechanism that allows them to remain in areas where they would normally be taken out by humans or animals. It has also lead to the discovery of a number of edible plants. If I remember correctly, Amaranth was one such plant, but I would have to dig into my books to be sure.

Thank you good information
