Geotropism Movement
Explanation:
- If we tend to keep a potted plant horizontally then the geotropic movement is determined
- Shoots are negatively geotropic i.e can grow upwards against the gravity and shoots are absolutely geotropic i.e can go downwardly
- The roots would begin growing downward whereas the stem would grow upward. This response to gravity is named tropism, or geotropism.
- The roots are exhibiting positive tropism, or growth with gravity, whereas the stem is exhibiting negative tropism, or growth against gravity.
- Different elements of a plant grow in opposite directions as a result of they need completely different functions. The roots ought to grow into the bottom to supply stability for the plant, in addition to access water and nutrients. The stem must grow upward toward the daylight that the plant will photosynthesize, or create food from daylight.
