Example of phototropism.
Phototropism is the act of a plant growing towards a light source. An example of this would be a houseplant that grows toward a window. Sunflowers are another example of phototropism as they grow straight upward when surrounded by larger plants.
The blooming of flowers in response to sunlight is an example of phototropism. The flowers will bend towards the direction of the light source to maximize their exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis.
An example of teleology is the belief that a plant grows towards the sun in order to maximize its exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis, suggesting that the plant has a purpose or goal in its behavior.
It grows towards the sun, a direction we humans usually refer to as "up".
Yes, it does.
Heliotropic
The plant seedling is exhibiting positive phototropism by growing towards the window where it can receive more light for photosynthesis. Additionally, the roots are demonstrating positive gravitropism by growing into the soil to anchor the plant and absorb water and nutrients.
Animals actually do have blind spots. For example, a horse has a blind spot directly in front of it that grows smaller the closer you get.
A tree grows down with its roots to anchor itself in the ground, while it grows up with its trunk and branches reaching towards the sky.
Iris grows towards the light. That is phototropism.
it grows towards the light.
Plants grow naturally towards the strongest source of light, this is called phototropism. They do this in order to maximise their exposure to the sun and increase the amount of photosysnthesis (and therefore growth). This is a survival mechansim.An example of this is plants close to a window will always grow towards the window (for more light); most people simply turn the plant around to balance the "lobsided" growth effect that it creates.
