Imagine for a second that you live in the 32nd century, and there is a software called Plant Designer Pro in a bio lab. This program can not only design the DNA of a plant, but it can also create a seed. What would you do with it? What kind of plant would you like to create that doesn't exist yet?
I think I would create an evergreen tree which would have the properties of a longleaf pine but would produce big blue flowers and a green edible fruit that would look like a small watermelon and it would taste just like a watermelon. It would have tiny edible seeds like a strawberry.
If you could design a plant, what would it look like?
I'd design the biggest, baddest carnivorous plant that ever lived times a thousand. It would be so huge and it would only eat elephants, or hippos or rhinos, but primarily elephants which are not strong enough to escape it.
Edit: Okay, then how about a strawberry-orange-banana tree or deciduous shrub? Delicious!!
Reply:I would design one based upon leaves that give off a unique form of paper. After each rain I would remove those unique peices of paper, known as 20 dollar bills. ;%26gt;)
Reply:It'd be a dark-barked tree with bright purple leaves.
Reply:1. 4 feet plant
2. lots of branches and no leaves (this means that branches process the leaves's work so basically more efficient this way)
3. bears spherical fruit (orange size just enough that your mouth can bite through it)
4. seedless and all the fruit can be eaten like apple and juicy and full of nutrients.
5. reproduce through cutting the branches and stick them directly to the ground. (meaning more efficient)
6. does not require lots of water and sunlight (means they can live in extreme temp. they only need soild nutrients a lot actually.
6. they fruit bearing all year round. they don't stop flowering even if its winter... non stop...
Reply:One of the great Biology mysteries is:-
Plants use light to photosynthesise, but use chlorophyll, which is green and therefore reflects the middle of the spectrum. They would get far more energy if their leaves were black
So I suppose the answer would be: any productive plant but with black chlorophyll.
Reply:Probably an apple, banana, strawberry, orange, sugercane, peach growing oak tree lol
I really don't know, maybe like a special type of fern, or a ordinary blue grass like that one college football field
