The pattern created in a horse's coat where hairs change their direction of growth is called a what?
It is called cowlick. Horse Isle Quiz: Cowlick
What is the type of growth response having to do with light?
Phototropism
What is sonotropism?
Sonotropism, movement or growth in response to sound.
What is it called when a stem grows up?
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
Which response is result of geotropism?
Growth of plants toward the light is called phototropism. Growth of plants in response to gravity is called geotropism or gravitropism.
A change in the direction a plant grows in response to gravity?
A change in plant growth due to gravity is gravitropism. Roots have a tendency to grow in the direction of strongest gravitational pull.
What is the meanong of skototropism?
Directional growth in which the direction of growth is determined by the direction of the light source. In other words, it is the growth and response to a light stimuli.
What is growth in response to growth called?
thigmotropism
What is plant growth in response to touch called-?
thigmotropism
What is plant growth in response to touch?
Plant growth in response to touch is called thigmotropism.
What is plant growth in response to growth called?
thigmotropism
What are the effects of the tropisms caused by light and gravity?
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

The responses of plants to external stimuli are called?
The responses of plants to external stimuli is called Tropism.Here are some tropisms:* Chemotropism, movement or growth in response to chemicals * Geotropism (or gravitropism), movement or growth in response to gravity * Heliotropism, movement or growth in response to sunlight * Hydrotropism, movement or growth in response to water * Phototropism, movement or growth in response to lights or colors of light * Thermotropism, movement or growth in response to temperature.
What is plant's growth response to water is called?
water
What can be defined as a root's downward growth as a response to gravity?
A root's downward growth as a response to gravity is called positive gravitropism or positive geotropism.
What is thermal growth?
Thermal growth is more commonly known as thermal expansion. It is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.
