An animal that visually resembles a plant
In biology, Zoophytes are organisms that exhibit characteristics of both animals and plants, although they are animals. They have plant-like appearance and perform photosynthesis, but belong to the animal kingdom. The term is commonly used to describe certain types of marine life, such as sea anemones and corals. These organisms are often static and have similar systems of feeding and growth as certain plant species. Zoophytes display an extraordinary demonstration of nature's capacity for variation and adaptation.
