How Plants Communicate — page 1 — A PLANET FULL OF PLANTS Plants are some of the planet’s most amazing living things They turn sunlight into food They put oxygen into our air which we need to breathe Plants provide people with food clothing medicine building materials and much more Big small bright or dull plants can do it all Did you know they can communicate too They may look quiet and still but the plants in this picture are hard at work They get all their power from the sun 4

How Plants Communicate — page 2 — Think About It Plants can communicate even though they can’t speak How do people communicate without speaking Plants can’t talk or move around but they have other incredible ways of showing their needs Plant communications take place inside the plant as well as outside Plants send messages from one part of the plant to another It’s just like how the human brain sends messages to other parts of the body Some parts of a plant can only be seen using a microscope Communication sometimes happens at this level 5
