A tree that is growing on a hill and the roots are growing towards gravity (down)
A few examples of negative geotropism in plants include roots growing upwards in response to gravity (negative gravitropism), stems bending away from the ground to grow upwards (negative phototropism), and leaves folding upwards in response to touch or vibration (negative thigmotropism).

Phototropism: the growth of plants in response to light, such as bending towards a light source. Geotropism (gravitropism): the growth of plants in response to gravity, such as roots growing downward and stems growing upward. Thigmotropism: the growth response of plants to touch or mechanical stimuli, such as vines coiling around a support. Hydrotropism: the growth response of plants in search of water, where roots grow towards a water source.
Both geotropism and phototropism involve plant growth responses to external stimuli. Geotropism is a plant's growth response to gravity, which helps roots grow downward and stems grow upward. Phototropism is a plant's growth response to light, guiding plants towards a light source for photosynthesis. Both tropisms aid plants in optimizing their growth and development.
Another name for geotropism is gravitropism. It refers to the growth or movement of an organism in response to gravity.
only plants no animals
A few examples of negative geotropism in plants include roots growing upwards in response to gravity (negative gravitropism), stems bending away from the ground to grow upwards (negative phototropism), and leaves folding upwards in response to touch or vibration (negative thigmotropism).
Geotropism is the plant's response to gravity. Plants exhibit positive geotropism when they grow towards the gravitational pull (roots), and negative geotropism when they grow away from it (shoots).
firstly there is no word as GVRAVITROPISM. When plants grow towards gravity it is called GEOTROPISM. its is mainly the root of plants that show geotropism; because they grow downward. but the stem show negative geotropism because it grows up in the opposite direction of gravity

Geotropism
Gravitropism (also known as geotropism) is a turning or growth movement by a plant or fungus in response to gravity. It is a general feature of all higher and many lower plants as well as other organisms. Wikipedia

No, plants do not always grow downward. Plant roots always grow downward due to positive gravitropism or positive geotropism. Plant shoots always grow upwards due to negative gravitropism or negative geotropism.
Geotropism, the tendency of some plants to grow straight up, against the force of gravity.
Both geotropism and phototropism involve plant growth responses to external stimuli. Geotropism is a plant's growth response to gravity, which helps roots grow downward and stems grow upward. Phototropism is a plant's growth response to light, guiding plants towards a light source for photosynthesis. Both tropisms aid plants in optimizing their growth and development.
Geotroprism is the growth of plants in response to gravity.Main roots are positively geotropic while main stems are negatively geotropic.The significance of the tropic response is to enable the root to penetrate into the soil for better anchorage and obtain more water and minerals.
