A plant is a living thing that usually has roots, stems, and leaves, and makes its own food from sunlight.
From Old English 'plante', from Latin 'planta' meaning 'sprout, shoot, cutting'. It originally referred to young slips used for planting.
Plants are quiet chemical factories, turning air and light into the food and oxygen that animals depend on. Even in a city, every little weed pushing through concrete is a plant insisting on life in tough conditions.
