What is the way the plants grows or bends in response to light?
There are auxins in plants (They help the plant in it upward growth). They tend to move away from direct sunlight.so when the plant is directly casted by light, the auxins in the plant move to the other side of the plant that has less light, thus their concentration becomes more on one side (the side with less light). Now since they help in the plant growth, the side of the plant with more of the auxins tends to grow faster than the side with less auxins, therefore the plant bends towards the light.
Why does a plant start to grow up when it has been put on its side?
Plants have a complex set of hormones which control their growth and these hormones are responsible for the 'directional' growth of the plant. Simply put, plants will grow up when they are put on their side because 'up' is where the sun is and plants will always grow towards the sun.
How does photo-tropism work in plants?
Plants have a hormone called auxin in them. When a plant is exposed to light and shade this hormone(auxin) reacts. For example: If light falls on the right hand side of the plant, the left hand side would be in the shade. This makes the auxin expand in the shaded area, causing the plant to grow towards the light.
What role do plants play in phototropism?
In phototropism, plant hormones control the growth and development of plants due to light. For example, in positive phototropism, auxin, a hormone, speeds up the rate at which plant cells grow. It builds up on the shadier side of a plant, causing those cells to grow faster than the cells on the sunny side of the plant. With longer cells on one side than the other, the stem bends toward the light.
What do plants grow upward?
plants grow upward, because they are attracted to sunlight. This causes them to follow the light and grow closer to it. For instance if you put a growing plant in a pitch black room, except for, say a flashlight, to its right side for a certain amount of time the plant will grow to its right side.
