The phototropic response to light occurs where?
The phototropic response to light occurs in plant cells, specifically in specialized cells called photoreceptors. These photoreceptors detect the direction and intensity of light and trigger a growth response in the plant, causing it to grow towards the light source. This response helps the plant optimize its exposure to light for photosynthesis.
What is a plants growth response away from a light source?
Phototropism is the plant's growth response away from a light source. This natural mechanism allows plants to adjust their growth towards light to optimize photosynthesis. By bending away from light, plants maximize their exposure and energy intake.
The responses of plants to external stimuli are called?
The responses of plants to external stimuli is called Tropism.Here are some tropisms:* Chemotropism, movement or growth in response to chemicals * Geotropism (or gravitropism), movement or growth in response to gravity * Heliotropism, movement or growth in response to sunlight * Hydrotropism, movement or growth in response to water * Phototropism, movement or growth in response to lights or colors of light * Thermotropism, movement or growth in response to temperature.
What is phototropism and how does it explain the phenomenon of plants growing towards light?
Phototropism is the growth of plants in response to light. Plants grow towards light because light stimulates the production of a hormone called auxin, which causes cells on the shaded side of the plant to elongate, bending the plant towards the light source.
Is a plant growing towards light a response or stimulus?
It is a response called phototropism, where the plant grows towards light as a result of the stimulus of light perception.
What is the response of plants to periods of light and dark called?
It is called photoperiodism
What is the movements of plant called?
The movements of plants in response to external stimuli are called tropisms. These include phototropism (response to light), gravitropism (response to gravity), and thigmotropism (response to touch).
The phototropic response to light occurs where?

What is the type of growth response having to do with light?
Phototropism is the growth response of plants to light, where they grow towards a light source. This response is regulated by the plant hormone auxin.
What is the response of plants or animals - to changes in the length of day or night - called?
This response is called, photoperiodism.
The name of the response of plants to light?
a "tropism"; geotropism for response to gravity and phototropism for response to light
What is a plants response to water called?
water
What is the response to light called?
Phototropism
