So if you look at a tiny blade of grass and a gigantic tree its like looking at a Chihuahua and a brachiosaurus. And there are smaller things and bigger things in the aminal kingdum!

It's also mindblowing that chihuahua and tibetan mastiff belong to the same species even tho they look entirely different.
tbf isn't a tree just a plant but big? makes sense that any plant species can evolve into a tree just by getting bigger
Trees are like every other plant, ONLY MORE SO
Well, I'm just a product of my environment.
I thought crab-like animals were all actually pretty closely related to each other, i.e. all crab-like animals are arthropods, which is a less broad category (despite the incredibly huge amount of species in it) than 'all plants that can form a wooden trunk'. Any taxonomists here to confirm/deny?
Things have independently evolved into crabs like five times or something
Yes, but I think OP’s point is those 5-6 crab-events all came from a narrow taxonomic group. All plant families have some trees. Only one sub-group of animals contains crabs.
It is as if all trees only came from members of the lily family.
