A definition or brief description of Plant (organism).

Is a group of living beings that have gone through several definitions along history, although, according to phylogeny concepts, it is accepted today that they are the organisms which belong to the kingdom Viridiplantae, green plants, or just Plantae, as a monophyletic eukaryotic group of beings with cells recovered by a mostly cellulose made wall; which carry photosyntheses using chlorophyll types a and b, present in chloroplasts; and keep their products, such as amid; therefore some algae, and all fungi and bacteria are not technically considered members of this group anymore.
