Answer:
Due to Auxin Hormones of plants.
Explanation:
The bending of plant towards light is known as phototropism. It is due to plant hormone auxin. Auxin is plant growth regulator which is sensitive to light. Auxin stimulates the growth of cells on the shady side of the plant which causes bending of the plant to the other side. This gives the appearance that the stem of the plant bends in the direction of light.

HERE IS UR ANS BUDDY...
An auxin, is a plant growth hormone that helps regulate shoot growth. ... But when sunlight varies, auxin is broken down on the sunnier side of the stem. The higher concentration of auxin on the shady side causes the plant cells on that side to grow more so it bends toward the light.
