Answer 1

Answer:

Phototropism is defined as the orientation of the plant or other photosynthesizing organisms in response to light.

Phototropism is a phenomenon by which a plant can maximize its exposure to sunlight because plants need sunlight to make food

Positive phototropism- Response of plant towards the light source. Example include sunflower.

Negative phototropism- Plant grows opposite to the light source. Example include Arabidopsis inflorescence.
