Why do plants have a greater disadvantage in unpredictable environments than animals?

Animals can move when the environment changes. (The "environment" is always changing; it has never been static.) Plants can't move. Some plants, such as the kinds that have burrs, can send their offspring away; an animal brushes against the plant, the seeds attach to the animal's fur, and later on the animal scratches the seed off to fall in a new location.


What function do chlorophyll perform in an animal cell?

Chlorophyll is not found in animal cells. It is a pigment that is found in plant cells and is involved in capturing light energy for photosynthesis. In animal cells, there is no need for chlorophyll as they do not photosynthesize.


When scientists first began classifying organisms they divided all living things into two categories plants and animals Later it became clear that not all organisms could be grouped?

This is true because there were (and are) a wide variety of animals, some that seem to be a mix between plants and animals, but are more animal than plant or vice versa. This certainly makes it quite complicated and confusing when it comes to the categorical process of scientifically naming plants and animals.


How come do animals with bones or shells can be found many years?

Animals with bones or shells can be found many years because these structures are hard and durable, making them resistant to decay. Fossilization processes can also preserve these structures over long periods of time, allowing them to be discovered by researchers many years later.

Why do plants survive without humans?

Plants grew for millions and millions of years with no humans at all. Much, much later, humans learned to grow bigger and better plants for food . . . the tradeoff was that these better plants like wheat, rice, and strawberries became dependent on humans for water, fertilizer, and other care. But plants in general are similar to what they have always been, and are self-reliant.
