Hey....

Your answer...

Markme as brainliest....

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.so touch me not droop down on touching.

Answer:

Explanation:

It is due to tutor pressure difference between the upper and lower halves of the base of petiole. Lower halves cells lose water and upper halve cells of pulvinus become turgide due to transfer of water from lower cells
