Plant bodies have a small proportion of dead cells in many tissues.
Plants do not move and have a large proportion of dead cells in many tissues, which reduces their energy needs compared to mobile organisms.
Plant tissues are composed entirely of living cells requiring high metabolic energy.
Energy needs in plants are identical to those of animals due to similar cellular structures.
Dead cells in plant tissues increase energy requirements for structural support.
Dead cells in plant tissues increase energy requirements for structural support.
Plants have low energy needs because they are stationary (sessile) organisms that do not require energy for locomotion. Additionally, a large proportion of plant tissues consist of dead cells (like sclerenchyma and xylem vessels) that do not consume energy for metabolic processes.

A building made largely of concrete and steel (dead/structural components) requires very little active heating and lighting compared to a bustling factory full of active machinery and workers (living animal tissues).

Unlike animals, which constantly expend energy for locomotion, hunting, and maintaining body temperature, plants are anchored in one place. Furthermore, plant structures are dominated by dead mechanical and conductive tissues (e.g., cork, xylem vessels, tracheids, and fibers), leaving only a small fraction of living cells that actively respire and consume energy.
