Which plants exhibit a response to touch, also known as thigmotropism?
Plants that exhibit a response to touch, also known as thigmotropism, include sensitive plants like the Mimosa pudica and the Venus flytrap.
The two main types of plant responses are tropic responses and nastic responses?
Tropic responses are called tropism. It is the growth or turning movement of plants in response to an environmental stimulus. Nastic movements are non-directional responses to stimuli, independent of the stimulus's position.
Is a Venus flytrap deciduous or coniferous?
These terms apply to trees, not to small plants. The Venus fly trap is a perennial which lives in warm, swampy places.
What kind of plant with eyes can be found in the wild?
The Venus flytrap is a plant with eyes that can be found in the wild.
What are the examples of Turgor Movement Plants?
Examples of plants that exhibit turgor movement include the sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica), venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula), and the bladderwort (Utricularia). These plants use changes in turgor pressure within their cells to move parts of their structures in response to stimuli such as touch or prey capture.
Which plants exhibit a response to touch, also known as thigmotropism?

Pictures of a thigmotropism?
Thigmotropism is the growth response of plants to contact or mechanical stimulation. Examples include vines wrapping around a support structure and tendrils coiling around objects for support. These plants exhibit thigmotropism as a way to seek structural support for growth.
What is an example of nastic response?
An example of a nastic response is the closing of a Venus flytrap's lobes when an insect touches its sensitive trigger hairs. This rapid movement is not directed toward the stimulus but occurs in response to mechanical stimulation, allowing the plant to capture its prey. Another example is the folding of a Mimosa pudica leaf when touched, which serves as a defense mechanism against herbivores.
What are the three characteristics of nastic responses?
Nastic responses are non-directional movements of plants in response to stimuli. The three key characteristics are: they are typically rapid and reversible, they occur independently of the direction of the stimulus, and they often involve turgor changes in specific cells, leading to movement. Common examples include the closing of a Venus flytrap and the drooping of leaves at night in some plants.
What are the mechanisms of closing over the prey for Venus Flytraps?
The Venus Flytrap uses a type of movement called a nastic movement wish is caused by a sudden stiffening in turgor pressure. Turgor pressure is pressure built up by water. That is why when a plant does not have enough water, it wilts from lack of this turgor pressure. I give credit to this knowledge to: Seventh Grade Science Class ;)
When was Venus The Flytrap created?
Venus Flytrap was created in 1768.
Is the Venus Flytrap an amphibian?
No, the Venus Flytrap is not an amphibian.
Is a Venus Flytrap avascular?
Yes, a Venus Flytrap is avascular.
What are the Venus Flytrap's rhizomes?
The Venus Flytrap's rhizomes are their roots.
Is a Venus Flytrap in the understory?
Yes, the Venus Flytrap is in the understory.
Does a Venus Flytrap have chlorophyll?
Yes, the Venus Flytrap does have chlorophyll.
When did Venus The Flytrap happen?
Venus The Flytrap happened in 1990.
