Positive gravitropism (plants grow up) benefits the plant because it has a better root structure. It is an adaption of plants to gravitropism which has a weak root system, however it is beneficial in certain areas for plants to be gravitropes.

∙ 14y agoThe advantage of phototropism is that the plant grows in the direction of the sunlight and not into a shaded direction in which it would get less light.

Stems and leaves grow using positive what?
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.
What benefit is there for a plant's shoots to have positive phototropism?
They get towards the light and do photosynthesis to make their own food.
What controls geotropism and phototropism?
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
What causes plant stems to exhibit positive response to light?
the answer is day nuetral plants Edited answer: Due to phototropism
What is it called when a plant grows toward light?
It is called "phototropism". It is caused by the destruction (by light) of chemicals (called Auxins), produced by the growing tip, that is responsible for making plants cells elongate. The side in shadow therefore elongates while the side in full Sun does not. This turns the plant growth towards the Sun.
What is the biological importance of hydrotropism and phototropism?
The biological importance of hydrotropism and phototropism in plants is that they help increase the efficiency of the plants in their ecosystem. Hydrotropism has to do with the efficiency of using water while phototropism has to do with sunlight.
Growing toward light is phototroprism?
Your spelling is a bit off ---- phototropism is the tendency of an organism to turn or move toward (positive phototropism) or away from (negative phototropism) light.
Is phototropism a plant's response to light?
Yes, phtotropism is a plant's response to light. Growth towards a light source is called positive phototropism, while growth away from light is called negative phototropism.
What word describes plant growth toward light?
positive phototropism
Stems and leaves grow using positive what?
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.
What do you call the movement of shoot towards light?
Phototropism is a plant's growth response to a light source, determining which direction it grows in. Positive Phototropism is the tendency for a plant to grow towards the light; Negative Phototropism is when it grows away from the light.
A plant sits on a window sill over time the stems of the plant curve toward the light coming in the window this process is called?
This is due to tropic movement(tropism) in plants in which the fixed part of a plant(such as stem) moves in response to a stimulus.If the stimulus is light(as you have asked) then it is termed as Phototropism.And further more stem shows positive phototropism.
A plant growing toward a light is an example of?
umm im pretty sure its responce :) hop i helped A plant growing toward light is an example of positive phototropism.
