Best Answer

Plants are able to bend or grow towards a stimulus (e.g. sunlight). The growing towards a stimulus is maintained by production of growth hormones which are produced due to signal cascades from photoreceptor proteins in plant's cells.

Bending is gained by changing the water pressure in vacuoles of the cells.

Plants can also move on their own. They move toward the source of light around them, like the sunlight.

Plants do not engage in locomotion. They stay where they are, if they are rooted in the ground, and they float on the currents, if they are aquatic.

Is it important for babies to crawl before learning to walk?

YES! I teach dancers of all ages. Those that did not crawl before walking have difficulty later in life with hand-eye coordination, sports, reading. It is a logical, progressive step for development. 1st: we learn to roll over; 2nd: we learn to get to hands and knees and rock back and forth 3rd: we locomote on all fours 4th: we learn to balance our head over our torso sitting and standing 5th: we locomote on 2 feet...natural progression; logical development. Don't let anyone convince you that it is not a necessary step in the development of baby!
