  Hi amostafa,
  
  Not really my area, I work with soil and plants. Usually we think of consciousness as being aware of your surroundings. There is some interesting work (no sure I agree) on the consciousness exhibited by plants at the moment. Do they ‘feel’ pain? Maybe Prince Charles is right to sing to his plants.
