Why do Mimosa pudica (touch-me-not) leaves droop down when touched?

Answers

Answered by CharmingHeart19

1

When we touch Mimosa pudica (touch me not ), our touch acts as stimulus for plant and it closes its leaves in return. 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.
