Plant automatic response to climate change (Introduction)

DAVID’s comment: All of this is controlled by protein molecules changing with different stimulations. Cells work at high speed and necessarily the reactions have to be automatic to maintain the production speed at split-second timing. As noted all of the reactions are not known, but I am sure will be found to work automatically like all cell reactions.

Yes, you are sure that cells are automatons preprogrammed 3.8 billion years ago by your God with solutions to every problem throughout the history of life, or alternatively their split second reactions are actually God intervening to adjust each individual plant. I am not so sure. Some scientists are sure you are wrong.

DAVID’s comment (under “Biological complexity: Bacteria have complex organelles”): If the first cells of life were this complex only a designer could have created them. We know that cells in eukaryotes have compartments for different production functions. It is logical to find bacteria are the same and cellular function hasn't really changed since the beginning of life. Overall complexity is simply different functioning cells coming together to make complex organisms.

If cellular function hasn’t changed since the beginning, the beginning must have comprised “different functioning” cells. So single cell life already contained brain cells, liver cells, kidney cells, sex cells….I would suggest that cells have changed their functions in all the innovations that have taken place since multicellularity began.
