The role of phototropism is to provide more energy for the plant. This gives it more energy because when photosynthis developes the light into energy, it actually needs light! Shocking. (Not really) So phototropism makes the plant lean twoard the sun.

How do auxins relate to phototropism and gravitropism?

Auxins are plant hormones that play a key role in both phototropism (growth towards light) and gravitropism (growth in response to gravity). In phototropism, auxins accumulate on the shaded side of the stem, promoting cell elongation and bending towards the light source. In gravitropism, auxins redistribute in response to gravity, causing differential growth and either upward (negative gravitropism) or downward (positive gravitropism) bending of the stem.


What role do plants play in phototropism?

In phototropism, plant hormones control the growth and development of plants due to light. For example, in positive phototropism, auxin, a hormone, speeds up the rate at which plant cells grow. It builds up on the shadier side of a plant, causing those cells to grow faster than the cells on the sunny side of the plant. With longer cells on one side than the other, the stem bends toward the light.
