Phototropism is the measure of growth when the sun is facing the plant to help it grow or survive. Photo means sunlight. There are chlorophylls in the leaves of the plants, which are small, microscopic sized green organisms. These chlorphylls collect the sunlight from the sun and transfers the light to glucose. Glucose is a thick sugary substance that the plant needs to feed on to survive. There are also other plants that don't have to depend on sunlight to survive, such as red algae. Red algae actually depends on eating smaller organisms when dwelling too deep in the sea to capture sunlight, but when near surface, it has the ability to transfer the sunlight to glucose. So red algae are both photosynthetic and autotrophic. Photosythetic means that a plant has the ability to absorb sunlight and transfer it to glucose. Autotrophic means that a plant has the ability to devour smaller organisms to survive. I hope this answers your question! :)

What is a sentence example of phototropism?

A plant turning toward sunlight is what kind of response?
It is a tropism, specifically phototropism.
A plant growing toward a light is an example of?
umm im pretty sure its responce :) hop i helped A plant growing toward light is an example of positive phototropism.
What is phototropism what does have to do with plants?
Tropism is the growth response of a plant caused by a stimulus. Gravitropism is the growth response of plant to gravity. The roots grow downward towards gravity, which is called positive gravitropism. The stem and upper part of a plant grow upward, away from gravity, which is called negative gravitropism.
A plant sits on a window sill over time the stems of the plant curve toward the light coming in the window this process is called?
This is due to tropic movement(tropism) in plants in which the fixed part of a plant(such as stem) moves in response to a stimulus.If the stimulus is light(as you have asked) then it is termed as Phototropism.And further more stem shows positive phototropism.
What is a sentence example of phototropism?

Which of these terms can be defined as a plant's response to light?
Phototropism refers to a plant's response to light, where the plant grows toward or away from a light source.
What does a plant do to live?
photosynthesise and phototropism
What benefit is there for a plant's shoots to have positive phototropism?
Positive phototropism allows plant shoots to grow toward sources of light, ensuring they receive optimal light levels for photosynthesis. This helps plants maximize their ability to produce energy and grow efficiently.
What promotes plant growth and phototropism?
auxins
Is phototropism a plant's response to light?
Yes, phtotropism is a plant's response to light. Growth towards a light source is called positive phototropism, while growth away from light is called negative phototropism.
What do you call the movement of shoot towards light?
Phototropism is a plant's growth response to a light source, determining which direction it grows in. Positive Phototropism is the tendency for a plant to grow towards the light; Negative Phototropism is when it grows away from the light.
What examples of plants is phototropism?
The Sunflower plant inflorescence at the time of anthesis move toward the sun due to phototropism.
