What is a plant's response to gravity called?
A plant's response to gravity is called gravitropism or geotropism.
What is the name for a plant's growth response to gravity?
Certain plants react to gravity by growing against it or towards it. It is the tropism of gravity called a geotropism. For example, if a potted plant falls over then it will continue to grow towards the sky. If a mudslide occurs and it drastically tilts the land where a tree grows, the tropism allows the tree to grow upwards. Alternatively, geotropism works for roots as well. Roots will respond to gravity by growing downwards. It can be observed that no matter which way a seed is planted the roots and the shoots respond to gravity in opposite ways. Plant hormones, auxins are responsible for this response. Phototropism is the response of plants to light.
How will the roots of the growing bean seed plant respond to the force of gravity?
The roots will first go upward, then downward.
Which of these can be defined as a roots downward growth as a respnse to gravity?
Gravitropism, which is a growth movement by a plant, fungus, or animal in response to gravity. Charles Darwin was one of the first to scientifically document this.
How does a roots respond to gravity?
how does a root respond to gravity
Roots growing with gravity and stems growing against gravity are examples of?
Geotropism
A plant seedling grows toward the window and its roots reach into the soil what type of movement does the seedling show?
These growth responses are called tropisms. Growing towards the light is called phototropism, and towards the source of gravity is geotropism.

When a plant grows toward light is the suns light the stimulus?
umm im pretty sure its responce :) hop i helped A plant growing toward light is an example of positive phototropism.
What is the difference between positive and negitve geotropism?
Geotropism (also called gravitropism) is the turning or growth movement by a plant or fungus in response to gravity. Roots show positive geotropism (grow toward gravity - down) and stems show negative geotropism (grow away from gravity - up).
Examples of plants of geotropism?
A tree that is growing on a hill and the roots are growing towards gravity (down)
How will the roots of the growing bean seed plant respond to the force of gravity?
The roots will first go upward, then downward.
What problems did astronauts have growing plants in low gravity?
Due to lack of gravity the roots grew upwards.
A tree is growing near a pond which direction are the roots growing?
They grow toward the pond in order to get food and water.

Gravitropism, which is a growth movement by a plant, fungus, or animal in response to gravity. Charles Darwin was one of the first to scientifically document this.
A tree is near a pond Which direction are its roots most likely growing?
the roots would grow toward the trees to get its food and water
