Endemic plants are special because they are found in only one location on the planet, and nowhere else. Mountain ranges are separated from other mountains by "seas" of desert, across which plant and animal migration is difficult due to the dramatic differences in environment between the high elevations and the basins below. Each mountain range behaves much like an island, where species are trapped. They adapt and change within the very specific parameters of that one location. mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333984813 2019-02-22 01:42:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333984813 A plant is considered native if it has occurred naturally in a particular region, ecosystem, or habitat without human introduction. Native plants have formed symbiotic relationships with native wildlife over thousands of years, and therefore offer the most sustainable habitat. mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333992163 2019-02-22 02:16:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333992163 An exotic plant is a plant that has been introduced to an area from outside its native range, either purposefully or accidentally. - A naturalized exotic plant is one that that can sustain itself outside of cultivation, outside its native range. mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333996761 2019-02-22 02:41:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333996761 An "invasive species" is defined as a species that is. Non-native (or alien) to the ecosystem under consideration; and, Whose introduction causes or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health. mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333997996 2019-02-22 02:48:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333997996 Ornamental plants are plants that are grown for decorative purposes in gardens and landscape design projects, as houseplants, cut flowers and specimen display. The cultivation of ornamental plants are called floriculture,is a plant that is grown for how it looks and not for its commercial or other value. mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333998665 2019-02-22 02:52:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333998665 mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333999683 2019-02-22 02:57:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/333999683 mpv2406 https://padlet.com/mpv2406/r4z1ipt76pku/wish/334000501 Common name:Palma Cica
