Certain plants like the Mimosa pudica release some chemicals from its stem as soon as we touch the plant. Our touch is a stimulus for it and it closes its leavesin response. The chemicals produced by touch forces water of the leaves tomove out of the cell and due to loss of turgor pressure, they droop.

Answer:
i think you mean mimosa pudica and other plants like it
Explanation:
When we physically touch the 'touch-me-not' plants ,then our physical touch works as an external stimulus for the plant.
In the reaction of the external stimulus, a special type of chemical is secreted inside the leaves of the touch-me-not plants.
Due to this chemical secretion,the internal turgor pressure of the touch me not plant's leaves decrease and the leaves shrink it's physical size.
This plant movement is known as the chemotrophic movement.
