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 tendency of a plant to grow toward a stimulus called?
did not help
What is the word for a Plant that grows towards the light?
phototropic (details from another answer) movement of or growth of plant in response to external stimulus. e.g. growth of root towards gravity - geotropism growth of shoot towards the light - phototropism hydrotropism is exhibited by lengthening of roots towards water source and finally, thigmotropism is growth towards solid objects -support by climbers
Which of these external stimuli produces growth of the plant toward light?
The stimulus that produces growth of the plant toward light is called phototropism. It is caused by the presence of blue light, specifically light in the 440-470nm wavelength range, which is detected by the plant's photoreceptor molecule called phototropin. This photoreceptor triggers a signaling pathway that stimulates cell elongation on the shaded side of the plant, resulting in growth towards the light source.
What causes a plant to grow upward?
Okay, well there is tropism and stimulus. The stimulus can be gravity, light, and touch. So it depends... If there is a window above the plant and it is reaching upwards towards it... then it would be light, and the plant's response would be reaching upward towards it.
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'.

Is a plant growing towards light a response or stimulus?
Response. The stimulus is the light.
Plant growing toward light is called?
Phototropism
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.
A plant growing toward a light is an example of?

What are three examples of a plant's response to stimulus?
1)Touch me not plant folding its leaves when touched. 2)Plant growing towards light when kept in a dark room with a small hole for light. 3)

Tropism
What is stimulus with examples?
A stimulus is a DETECTECTABLE change in the environment. e.g. light is a stimulus to an animal or plant if it can detect the light with a sensing eye or chemical
What are some cool ideas for a science project?
One origional science project is: growing a few plants, and with each plant put the light in a different area (ie: plant one gets the growing light on top, plant two gets the light on bottom, and plant three gets the light on the side). You can determine if the plants actually grow toward the light.
