Answer:
True
Explanation:
Mimosa Pudica is also known as Touch Me Not plant. Some chemicals are released from the stem when we touch the plant. These chemicals force water to move out of the cell leading to the loss of turgor pressure. As a result, leaves droop.

Explanation:
The Mimosa plant folds the leaflets on stimulus with touch. The stimulus is passed on to the entire branch and then the whole plant with all the leaflets close. There is a loss of water from the cells at the base of the leaf. This is due to the passing of the impulse which causes a change in the turgor pressure in the cells causing the leaflets to be closed.
