plant can change direction if theirs any external force that cause it annul to the opposite direction. it has be to the best of my knowledge last time i engaged my self in viticulture in down here in Nigeria, i found it very hard to cultivate grape fruit in my garden, happen that the rate of wind in Nigeria is much compare when i was in northern part of Zaire in East Africa where the rate of wind strength is low. to my view i found out that wind is con tributary to plant directional change and also. there other factors that should not be ignore cause they also contribute to plant directional change. these are,
erosion: erosion can also cause plant to change it direction in earlier age of plant.
improper transplanting: this is one of the major cause of plant to change it direction.
it happen when the farrmer position it nursery in the wrong direction these cause root to position to annul point where they found direction mode.
Most plants grow up, or away from gravity. Even vining plants will first grow upwards before they grow too long and start to vine. So, if a plant were subjected to a change in gravity...say, hung from an upside down pot...it would change it's growth direction to again grow away from gravity, growing upwards.
The roots of plants predominantly grow downward, towards the soil.
could we grow plants on other planets? Answers please.
downwards or in the direction of gravity.
One direction
Plants grow from the top, where the shoot apical meristem is located. The direction of their growth is influenced by factors such as light, gravity, hormones, and environmental conditions.
Plants grow from the top, where new cells are produced in the shoot apical meristem. The direction of their growth is determined by various factors, including hormones, light, gravity, and environmental conditions.
Yes, in fact, that is the best place for them to grow.
No. Plants are designed for the roots to grow in the direction of gravity and the leaves to grow against gravity. A plant grown upside down will adapt by curving its stem upwards again.
When an object is accelerating, its velocity is changing over time. This can result in an increase or decrease in speed, a change in direction, or a combination of both. Acceleration can be caused by forces like gravity, friction, or applied force.
no,.because they could not perform photosynthesis in the dark
This change in direction is called gravitropism. Plants respond to gravity by growing roots downward (positive gravitropism) and shoots upward (negative gravitropism). This mechanism helps plants optimize their growth by maintaining stable positions in relation to gravity.
