thigmotropism
Plant growth in response to touch is called thigmotropism.

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.
A root's downward growth as a response to gravity is called positive gravitropism or positive geotropism.
The growth in response to a stimulus is called tropism. Tropisms are directional growth responses exhibited by plants or organisms in response to specific environmental cues such as light, gravity, or touch. These growth responses help the organism to adapt and survive in its environment.

The growth response of seedlings to environmental stimuli is called "tropism." Specifically, phototropism refers to their growth towards light, while gravitropism involves their response to gravity, with roots growing downward and shoots growing upward. These responses help seedlings optimize their growth conditions and enhance survival.
The growth response of a plant to touch is called thigmotropism. Thigmotropism is the phenomenon where plants grow or orient themselves in response to mechanical contact or touch. Examples include plants like vines that coil around structures for support.
Geotropism is a plant growth or movement in response to gravity. Upward growth of the plant's parts against gravity is called negative geotropism, whilst downward growth of roots is called positive geotropism.
A plant's response to gravity is called gravitropism or geotropism.
