Can they feel pain?

Do they have seperate genders?

And does weed killers count as cruelty to plants?

Oh, and another one. Does it hurt them if you pick off their blooms? Or is that like hair and fingernails on us?

I'm not sure...

I mean, plant and animal cells are different, but they're both alive...

Huh? I dunno. I mean, Veggetarians don't eat meat because they don't wanna eat anything that felt pain and was once alive? Well I mean, plants are alive...soooo....

No

@grasshopper Said

Do they have seperate genders?


Depends on the type, some are asexual, some have both "male" and "female" parts, and some use other means.

@grasshopper Said

And does weed killers count as cruelty to plants?


I don't really think "cruelty to plants" exist.

Some biologists used to say that about dogs though (ages ago). They used to do operations, and say the screams were just escaping air. Amazing how scientists change their minds, init?

What ones have seperate genders then? And how can you tell? Sounds weird...
