Want this question answered?
When the auxins in the plant act towards gravity... positive geotropism is wen the plant goes to the direction of gravity which would be downwards..negative geotropism would be upwards going against the natural gravity Phototropism is when the plant reacts towards the photosynthesis conditions where when light acts on the plant so the auxins burst and the plant bends towards light..this is positive phototropism...but when the plant goes against the direction of light it is then negative phototropism
geotropism (also known as gravitropism), phototropism, and hydrotropism.
stems and leaves grow using positive phototropism. That means growing towards the source of light. Mostly we reffer to the sun in this case. Even so, stems and roots can as well grow away from the source of light, that is negative phototropism.
a "tropism"; geotropism for response to gravity and phototropism for response to light
response to water: hydrotropism, response to light: phototropism, response to chemicals: chemotropism, response to gravity: geotropism, response to touch: thigmatropism

phototropism-responce to llight geotropism-responce to gravity thigmotropism-responce to touch hydrotropism-responce to water
Phototropism - towards light. Think plants, flowers, leaves. They generally turn towards light.Geotropism - towards the earth. Go figure.Hydrotropism - towards water or towards moisture.

A tropism is a growth response whose direction is determined by the direction of the stimulus. Growth towards the stimulus is called a positive tropism. Growth away from the stimulus is called a negative tropism. The response to light is called phototropism. Shoots are positively phototropic, roots are negatively phototropic. The response to gravity is called gravitropism (or sometimes geotropism). Shoots are negatively gravitropic and roots are positively gravitropic. http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/T/Tropisms.html
light, positive phototropism and towards the light gravity, negative geotropism and grow in opposite direction to gravity NOT WATER
Growth of plants toward the light is called phototropism. Growth of plants in response to gravity is called geotropism or gravitropism.
Leaves and shoots grow towards light in a reaction known as phototropism. Similarly, an attribute called geotropism causes roots to grow down towards gravity.
