What is a plant's movement away from or toward a stimulus?
Tropism is the movement of a plant away from or toward a stimulus. The most easily found example of tropism is a plant's response to light. Plants tend to grow toward the light. This tendency is called 'phototropism'.
Describe the difference between a response and a tropism?
There is a slight difference between a response and a tropism. Response is simply any form of reaction to simulation while tropism refers to the directional movement response in plants.
A plant's growth response toward or away from a stimulus is called a?
Tropism
What are the four tropisms?
Tropism is a biological phenomenon where an organism responds to the stimulus brought by the environmental factors. Some examples include: chemotropism, heliotropism, phototropism, thermotropism and electrotropism.
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
What is the difference between taxis and tropism?
Tropism: is the growth response of a plant that results from certain stimuli. Tropism can be positive, in which case the plant will bend toward the stimulus, or negative, in which case the plant will bend away from stimulus. Taxis: Taxis in animals is the responsive movement of going toward or away from an external stimulus.

What is the plant's response to the stimulus?
Tropism is the response plants have towards external stimulus.
What is a plant response to a stimulus called?
Tropism is the response plants have towards external stimulus.
What is the difference between tropism to taxes?
A tropism is a growth movement of part of a plant. Rather than a motile organism.
A plant's growth response toward or away from a stimulus is called a?
Tropism
What is the difference between stimulus and stimuli?
the difference is that, stimuli is the plural of stimulus; that is stimuli is feelings while stimulus is feeling.
What is tropismo?
Tropism is the turning point in an organism in a particular direction. This is an external stimulus.
What is a tropism that is towards the stimulus called?
well ..thats a good question.. i studied that for a while and if i remember , it is called POSITIVE TROPISM.. but if it grows away from the stimulus its NEGATIVE TROPISM. Nice question.. alot of people ask that.. but they really dont pay attention because it in the question! :) hope this helps!! :) :P
What is the relationship between stimulus and tropism?
Stimulus is any kind of change in substances or in happenings, occurs in the surrounding of a living thing that bring about any kind of response from it.Tropism is the way by which plants respond to the stimuli. These kind of plant responses are either MOVEMENTS OR GROWTH of plat parts in particular directions.For Eg:-1. Leaves of 'touch me not plant' folds its leaves on our touch.2. plant roots grows towards the direction water availability.
