The Evolution/Nature of Synntax.

Featured Replies

most creatures use gestures and body launguge companied by chemical language ( Pheromones , Psychedlic Compounds ) and possible senses that we have yet to discover or understand. Vocal lanuage is common of most higher familys of animalea . And Plants and fungi can possibly communicate from plant to animal via psychedelic compounds , but is there any information on plant to plant synntax ? Fungi to plant ? fungi ti fungi?Are all chemicals a form of communication. such as a chemical setting off a certian receptor thus causing a recation. i beilve all is communication including the synapes between nerouns . im gonna keep researching and see what i can find.

I'm not sure exactly what your saying, but you seem to be saying something like "so animals evolved using communication, but what about plants?". I'm no expert on plants, but experiments and observations have shown they can in fact in some way sense things they come into contact with even without those venus flytrap hairs (just look at vines), and there's also a phenomena where if the roots of trees becomes interconnected and you chop down one of the trees in the system, the other trees in contact with the killed tree's roots will release sap. Both plants an animals contain cells and DNA, so it wouldn't be surprising if there was some basic chemical or biological interaction between plants and animals, but there is little evidence to suggest plants and animals can actually "communicate" with each other or that plants can communicate with plants in the sense that we know of.

Syntax is about the structure of sentences. To have any meaning there need to be sentences to study. As far as I know we are the only ones who naturally do this.

Humans can tell the difference between "Man bites dog" and "Dog bites man", and also between "Man bitten by dog " and "Dog bitten by man" but I don't think any other life form can.

The difference is syntax and I think we are the only ones who get it.
