This Plant Can "Learn" and Remember for Weeks

Описание: Is a complex nervous system required for memory? This video investigates whether the Mimosa pudica plant can exhibit learning and memory through the process of habituation. 🌿
We examine research where plants were subjected to a controlled drop system. The findings reveal that the species eventually stops closing its leaves when it realizes the physical disturbance is non-threatening. This behavioral change occurred even more rapidly in low-light environments, where the energetic cost of closing leaves is higher.
In this video, you will discover: 🧠 Plant Learning: How Mimosa pudica adapts its biological responses based on prior experience. 💡 Energy Efficiency: Why low-light environments accelerate the learning process to save energy for photosynthesis. 📅 Long-Term Memory: The remarkable discovery that these plants retained this learned behavior for up to a month. 🚫 No Brain Needed: Evidence that sophisticated signaling pathways can replace the need for a nervous system in memory formation.
Are we underestimating the intelligence of the plant kingdom?
