In plants, the cell membrane is located between the cell cytoplasm and the cell wall. As is the case with animal cells, the cell membrane in plants is a lipid bilayer.

Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. In plants, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane. This gives the plant cell its unique rectangular shape. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.

Both plant and animal cells contain a nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and cell membrane.

Plant cells are larger than animal cells. Plant cells have plastids whereas animal cells do not have plastids. Centrosomes are absent in plant cell whereas animal cell have centrosomes. Plant cells are without cilia whereas animal cells are with cilia.

Animal: Animals are eukaryotic organisms with many cells. They do not use light to get energy and grow, as plants do. Differences between plants and animals: Locomotion: Plants generally are rooted in one place and do not move on their own (locomotion), whereas most animals have the ability to move fairly freely.

Plants give animals food and shelter. Misconception: Plants don’t need animals to survive. ✓ Fact: Plants and animals depend on each other. One reason that many plants need animals is for pollination.

When a tomato plant’s stem was cut, the researchers found it emitted 25 ultrasonic distress sounds over the course of an hour, according to Live Science. Tobacco plants sent out 15 distress sounds when their stems were cut.

Plants share nutrients and recognize kin. They communicate with each other. They can count. They can feel you touching them.

While they may not have brains like humans do, plants talk to one another through smell and even communicate with insects to maintain survival. …

The short answer is no, plants do not get lonely, at least not in the same sense we think of the word. They might be aware of each other, even aware of themselves and events occurring to them and around them, but they don’t miss you in the same way a dog will miss you.

It’s something that plant lovers have long suspected, but now Australian scientists have found evidence that plants really can feel when we’re touching them.

Neurobiologists have long recognized that fish have nervous systems that comprehend and respond to pain. Fish, like “higher vertebrates,” have neurotransmitters such as endorphins that relieve suffering—the only reason for their nervous systems to produce these painkillers is to alleviate pain.

“Since fishes lack the parts of the brain that set us apart from the fishes — the cerebral cortex — I doubt very much that fishes engage in anything like crying,” Webster told LiveScience. “And certainly they produce no tears, since their eyes are constantly bathed in a watery medium.”

Scientists at the University of Burgundy in France carried out a study on convict cichlid – a popular aquarium fish that looks a little bit like zebra. This shows us that fish do feel companionship and that it’s not just humans or mammals, so love really is in the water!

The answer is still no; as they live in water they probably don’t take it in as a conscious response to seek out and drink water. Thirst is usually defined as a need or desire to drink water. It is unlikely that fish are responding to such a driving force.

Most fish do use air to inflate and deflate their bladder to maintain buoyancy which is expelled either through their mouth or gills which can be mistaken for a fart. Point being – No farts.

Although a fish is only marginally like a human, fish can be convenient subjects for scientists who want to study the effects of alcohol. That’s because to get a fish tipsy, you don’t have to force it to drink anything. You only have to put a small concentration of alcohol into its tank.

Just like any other pet, fish can become bored, too. And while they won’t chew up your shoes, keeping them occupied will ensure they live a healthier life. Bettas particularly enjoy moving them around the tank, but just about any fish will be curious enough to check it out.

No, fish do not get “sad” if another fish dies. Fish do have a brain that is capable of some type of “emotion” but not to the extent that humans feel. They don’t feel anything like sadness, but may feel something to a smaller extent. Scientists have been able to train fish.

A correctly set up, properly stocked and well maintained aquarium doesn’t need to be “cruel”. The animals can live quite a good life with easy access to food and no predator pressure. Even territorial conflicts are usually avoided, because you don’t want your animals to die, do you? No, not in and of themselves.

Some fish seem to enjoy recreational activities, including watching TV or listening to music.

Did you know that you can actually play with your pet fish? Many fish owners do not realize that their betta fish can be played with just like with any other pet. Although your fish may not fetch like a dog, it can still provide entertainment as long as you take the time to entertain it as well.

Most decidedly loud noises can kill fish. People have known this for many years and have used the technique to catch fish.

Apprehension Following Bewilderment. Tapping on fish tank glass scares fish simply because it bewilders and disorients them. When fish feel bothered in this manner, it often makes them feel compelled to swim away and hide even more.

But can your fish hear you? The answer is… Yes, fish can hear your voice and will often associate it with a particular action. If you talk to them just before you feed them, for example, they’ll often swim to the top of the tank as soon as they see you or hear you speak.
