difference:
on the basis of: with their differences:
1.growth:
nastic: growth independent movement
tropic: growth dependent movement
2.time of action:
nastic:immediate
tropic:slow
3.reason for action:
nastic:change in turgor
tropic:cell division
4.response to stimulus:
nastic:non-directional
tropic:directional
5.alternate name:
nastic:nastics
tropic:tropism
6.examples:
nastic:opening and closing of stomata; leaves of  touch-me -not(mimosa)
tropic: phototropism,geotropism,chemotropism and hydrotropism etc.

\huge\bold{Answer}

\boxed{\textbf{Plant-movements}}

Plant responses to various stimuli are seen in the form af movements. According to the nature of stimulus movements may be induced (paratonic) or spontaneous (autonomous).

\bold{Induced-movements}

These are of two types:

◇ Tropic movements.

◇ Nastic movements.

\textbf{\underline{Tropic movements}}

These are directional and growth dependent movements.

For example:

1. Phototropism - movement towards light.

2. Geotropism - movement towards gravity.

3. Hydrotropism - movement towards water.

4. Chemotropism - movement due to chemical stimules.

5. Thigmotropism - movement due to contact or touch stimulus.

\textbf{\underline{Nastic movements}}

These are non-directional and growth independent.

For example:

1. Seismonasty - movement in response to touch.

2. Photonasty - movement in response to light.

3. Thermonasty - movement in response to heat.

4. Nyctinasty - sleep movements.

5. Epinasty - movement due to growth (bending).

6. Chemonasty - movement in response to a chemical.
