Question

Plants grow in size and they move towards a stimulus. Then does it suggest that plants are in
motion? Justify.​

Answer 1

Yes,the plants are in motion which is popularly known as the tropism.

• The motion or the movement of the plants are hard to observe due to the extremely slow rate of the movement.

• Now,the movement of the plant is directed towards the environmental stimulus,such as light,water, gravity and many more.

• These movements towrds the stimulus are popularly known as the tropism.

• And,we can consider this as the motion (very slow motion) of the plants.
