Most druse crystals found in plants are made of calcium oxalate star-like in shape. They are thought to deter herbivory, and a number of species of plants are poisonous to humans, as well as animals, due to the high calcium oxalate.
some plants like cannabis produce THC crystals shaped like tiny mushrooms, they help refract light like a prism breaking it up into its componant colours, also protects the calyx ( the thin bract in which the pistils emege from, and which will hold the seed as it develops) from uv light, also as in the case of cannabis the crystals have psycoactive properties which would act as a deterrent to plant grazing animals and seed stealing birds. these crystals are also the active compound in cannabis that cannabis users get high from.
The taxonomic role of plant crystals is providing extra support to various plant tissues. These crystals are the part of the plant that can lead to death in household animals.
The main function of a plant crystal is to protect plants from herbivores. Plant crystals are not poisonous but can cause an irritation to the skin.
It's the silica crystals that make horsetail fern (Equisetum hyemale) a scratchy tool.Specifically, the plant forms silica crystals on the cell walls of its stems and branches. The crystals form in response to the drying of the plant's parts. It is the persistence of these crystals in the branches and stems that make the plant a scouring tool, in many places and throughout many time periods.
It functions like the skin of and animal. I is what separates the plant from the external environment ;]
functions of amino acids present in plants
The functions of a plant tissue culture labaroatory is to clone plants by taking an explant off an already existing plant in order to get another plant with exatly the same genetic make up.
There are a few functions that are performed during respiration in a plant but not in a human. One of these functions is breathing out oxygen.
There is no definitive information about the functions of raphide crystals but it is highly suggested that they serve as a defense mechanism against herbivores. These crystals are commonly found inside a chamber in plant cells that are called idioblasts.

helps the plant to fit firmly on the plant.....

is the fuuuuuck lolz
Crystals have no healing powers. Such therapeutic results as have been asserted have been found to be within the range expected for the placebo effect.
The plant cell wall is made of cellulose and functions in the support of plant cells.
The leaves of a plant have three main functions: 1-They help in photosynthesis 2-They help the plant to respire(transpiration) 3-They store various food material
