Analogy of amyloplast in the school?

Amyloplasts in a school can be compared to storage rooms where excess supplies are kept for later use. Just like amyloplasts store starch in plant cells, these storage rooms hold extra materials until they are needed. When there is a demand for supplies, the contents of the storage room are readily available for use.

How are amyloplasts thought to be related to gravitropism?

Amyloplasts are specialized organelles containing starch granules, which act as statoliths in gravity perception. In gravitropic responses in plant roots, amyloplasts settle to the bottom of cells under gravity, leading to a redistribution of auxin that triggers differential growth and curvature in response to gravity. This mechanism helps plants orient themselves appropriately and grow in the direction of gravity.
