8 Ability Fabulous Plants That Shown As you did not notice



Plants may not be much you pay attention, because they are simply silent kebanyakn, whether they are waiting to be devoured?

Maybe you think they do not have a plan like animals, they just grow up and become prey.

But a lot of temperament that we can learn from plants. They can burn, firing weapons, can fly, and can even work together.

There are also plants that are able to build sophisticated schemes for their defense, there are also plants that can take revenge. Here are 8 plants that are unique.

8. Eucalyptus trees (Have a Napalm Bomb for their enemies)

When it comes time where they have to protect their territory, eucalyptus trees have a scorch earth policy. Eucalyptus trees are not only resistant to forest fires but also the culprit that caused it.

Eucalyptus is specifically designed to be a tree to survive after a raging fire gutted the life of the surrounding forest. This is all because they have a trunk hidden deep in their skins, which will come out when the smoke had faded.

Eucalyptus oil contains such as flammability, this tree can actually explode when they are burned, like flicking a cigarette butt into a gas station.

The leaves of the eucalyptus tree is so full of napalm toxic can not destroy insects and fungi. This tree also produces gas in the form of blue-gray cloud that can evaporate up into a ball of fire with a lightning bolt or a discarded cigarette butts, and there was an explosion reaction.



Eucalyptus plantations have been blamed for a fire in 1991 in California that destroyed 3,000 homes.

7. Plants that can be commanded Insects

One example was the tomatoes, when caterpillars start eating tomatoes, the experiment shows that tomatoes fumes of chemical signals that summon parasitic wasps army to come against them.

Tobacco, too, is known to have a similar call for help from the nearest predator to ward off caterpillars, leaf insects and other pests.

And the special plants that do not carelessly call in reinforcements, they are actually calling the troops really appropriate for the type of pests that are attacking them.

How is that possible? While they're just plants, they do not even have a basic knowledge of insect. How do they know they're edible, let alone distinguish between those who eat them?

The scientists believe that plants can sense the digestive substances an insect species that are attacking them. But it's not just about violence. Plants can also manipulate insects for something beneficial.

Orchids, over 85 million years ago have been known to decipher the chemical signals that employ the insects for communication, and they use tricks aroma which is basically to make the courier insects to plant their sperm.

For example, many orchids can produce aroma female insects in the summer. The goal is to help men lure pollinating insects.

And, some orchids, such as the Australian tongue orchids, creating a scent that was almost the same, so the insects will the old man perched on an orchid until the process is complete.

6. Java Cucumber (Master Mechanics Flight)

Of course, many plants use some kind of system to spread their seed using Angi. Thus, the seed will have some aerodynamic shape that allows them floating in the air for a while.

You already know that. But most of the seed will still fall straight down if there was no wind. Well, cucumbers Java has passed that hurdle. Java cucumber seeds have wings. Not a wing like a parachute that helped catch the wind.


Cucumber actual Java has developed wings that can fly up to 100 meters when absolutely no wind, and further more if there is no wind.



In fact, the seeds fly well and they have become an example for some aircraft made the first in the world. Igo Etrich, an Austrian, and one of the pioneers of flight, based design in the form of seed glidernya this.

5. Plants Communicate and Cooperate
Plants usually do not want to share their environment with foreign nomads. But when it comes the threat to his family, some plants will actually defend their brother.

When jewelweed plants placed in the pot with unrelated plants, they will grow as fast as possible, each trying to utilize nutrients as efficiently as possible and to stay away from the others.

But when similar plants planted together, they actually control their normal root development. Maybe Jewelweed is mafia families of the flora, not only do they not take food with each other, they really grow together.

Some plants can recognize their families and care enough to share a meal. Plants are able to tell their friends from their enemies, they seem to be able to collaborate with each other.


When a willow tree being eaten by caterpillars, trees will produce chemicals that will keep the insects have difficulty digesting. And then the trees around it that have not even been touched also will begin producing chemicals similar.

It was found that once the willow caught worm-eaten, it releases a pheromone into the air that will make a willow in the area if it can detect that they also put their own chemical weapons.

Plants are also working through the signal when in bloom. If they drop their flowers at random, herbivores can eat them one by one, but if they coordinate, they can be flooded with leaves and thin volume.

Even more remarkable, tobacco plants can communicate with a completely different species.

4. Marcgravia Evenia (Manipulate Bat)


Scientists have discovered a plant that can be commanded bats. In particular, they found a vine Marcgravia Evenia Cuban, who has developed a similar type of satellite leaves on the fruit.

Its function is not to catch the sunlight, the leaves are straight ahead. Apparently Marcrgavia depend exclusively on bats for seed dispersal.



The problem is that bats are blind, nor do they have a good sense of smell, so the plant was given the sophisticated sonar transmitter. And the leaves of this plant to be a perfect reflector to emit a signal.



Tests showed that the bat found the plant was 50 percent faster in the presence of this particular leaf than no special leaves.

Their research also showed that the leaves will hear echoes of constant and striking from almost every angle.

3. Dodder, Wine Forest Hunting For Food's


Dodder is a parasitic wine depends entirely on other plants for food. It has no roots or leaves, and unlike almost all other plants, this plant can not photosynthesize. To survive, plants need to absorb nutrients from other plants.



But it's not as simple as you think, plant a tree and landed in sebuat fangs and began to absorb. It's much more amazing! The Wine Dodder woods hunting victims.

Lab tests showed this plant can smell another specific plants and then grow toward them.



Dodder has a keen sense of smell of the "smell" of the odor he can also distinguish between a good host and a bad one.

After that he crawled in the trunk of victims, firmly attached, wrapped with a special emphasis spines to penetrate the bark, to suck the prey.

2. Plants that move faster than a bullet


The plant is almost universally defined by their total inability to move. You can threaten plants with chainsaws and even plants will not flinch, no matter the horror that may be felt in the heart. Or at least that's what you think.

Actually, there are quite a lot of plants that moves around us with surprising speed, but still could not get up and walk away.

Each leaf of this plant mounted on small hinges, and it was really twitching and moving around like the Whomping Willow from Harry Potter.

But the fastest plants use their lightning speed to spread their pollen around. Plants will really spark a fire pollen on the face nearest insects.



Pollen was fired plants in 15 milliseconds with the beat and enough power to hurt the insects, or at least similar to those insects will stagger punch.

However, plants have the most powerful shots in the world is the mulberry tree, the pollen could launch more than half the speed of sound (about 550 km / h).

But who gets the title of "fastest plant" is bunchberry dogwood tree. Launch the pollen under one millisecond. Almost nothing in the animal kingdom that can move faster than that.



Plants accelerate the launch mechanism at 2,400 times the force of gravity, or about 800 times what an astronaut might experience during takeoff.

1. Fig fruit, plants that can Replying Revenge


As you may already know, plants and insects have a very important relationship. Plants provide nectar, and in return, the insects pollinate crops.

But what happens if the insect does not comply with the system of co-operation? What will the plant do? Filing a complaint? Ask for insects to go?

Insects enough to benefit from this deal. They can eat for free, and maybe give them some pollen. The fig tree is not a tree that only resigned when rigged bees.

The fig tree has a partnership with a certain wasp called a fig wasp. Wasps need this plant because of the need for food, and lay eggs in the fruit. In return, the wasps pollinate the fruit is expected to do so trees can reproduce.



Fig trees can not reproduce without wasps, bees can not live without the fig tree. But that brings us back to the old problem: What if certain wasps do not care? He ate from the fig tree and pollinate? The fig tree will retaliate by killing his family!

The researchers experimented with introducing wasps non-productive (ie, wasps are not carrying pollen) figs. Wasps just walk away after eating a fig tree and left without pollination.

Then that happened, most of which have not been ripe figs falling falling, wasps kill children who have not had time to hatch and leave the fruit.



Somehow fruit fig wasps did not know the deal, and the wasp egg which is in men who have killed.
