oh, something just popped into mind, we have mammals, reptiles, insects and machines for the evolution list of species we can be, but when I played through mass effect, their was another type of species, plants, would it have been possible for plant life to evolve to become intelligent/sentient as well? =3

I'm just trying not to think too hard about the species templates. The idea that alien life would rigidly fit into the predefined characteristics of Earth life and share unique adaptations within those characteristics is silly.
