A tropism in which the roots of plant grow downward, in the direction of gravity
geotropism
Gravity. Gravitropism is when an object either moves towards or away from the force of gravity
the negative terminals
Pink is the negative colour for green
It can be positive or negative, but mostly negative because humans are the biggest predator of earthworms.
Positive!
No, plants do not always grow downward. Plant roots always grow downward due to positive gravitropism or positive geotropism. Plant shoots always grow upwards due to negative gravitropism or negative geotropism.
The growth of a plant part towards the Earth is called gravitropism. This is a plant's response to gravity, where roots grow downward (positive gravitropism) and stems grow upwards (negative gravitropism).
This change in direction is called gravitropism. Plants respond to gravity by growing roots downward (positive gravitropism) and shoots upward (negative gravitropism). This mechanism helps plants optimize their growth by maintaining stable positions in relation to gravity.

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.
Gravitropism (or geotropism) is a turning or growth movement by a plant or fungus in response to gravity. Charles Darwin was one of the first Europeans to document that roots show positive gravitropism and stems show negative gravitropism. That is, roots grow in the direction of gravitational pull (i.e., downward) and stems grow in the opposite direction (i.e., upwards). This behaviour can be easily demonstrated with a potted plant. When laid onto its side, the growing parts of the stem begin to display negative gravitropism, bending (biologists say, turning; see tropism) upwards. Herbaceous (non-woody) stems are capable of a small degree of actual bending, but most of the redirected movement occurs as a consequence of root or stem growth in a new direction.B_TCH SH_T MOTHER F_UCKER
well the scientific meaning of it is no because of gravitropism. gravitropism is the force of gravity on plant. dont know what gravitropism is: wikipedia search: gravitropism.
Positive gravitropism, as the roots grow towards gravity by growing downwards into the soil.
Positive phototropism, where the plant stem grows towards a source of light.
Gravitropism is when the roots grow deeper into the soil with the force of gravity pushing it. Wow, I'm in elementary school and my first person ever asking me something. It's a pleasure answering your question. I wish you luck on what ever your doing.
Positive gravitropism is the growth movement of a plant towards the gravity source, like roots growing downwards, while negative gravitropism is the growth movement away from the gravity source, like stems growing upwards. Both responses help plants optimize their growth in relation to gravity.
