yes because they use the sunlight to create photosynthesis which is where their leaves take in sunlight for the key nutrients they need

Why do potato plants follow the sun?

I suspect that like most green plants the potato has gibberellins (growth hormones) in the stem that migrate to the side of the stem opposite the sun. On that side they stimulate stem growth, causing the stem to bend towards the sun.


Why do you think our plants grew towards the sun explain?

Competitive pressure. To get the energy that the sun provides, plants need to be able to "see" it. If another plant grows on top of the first plant, it will block the energy and the first plant will not grow as well. Natural selection would take care of the rest... those plants that can see the sun (those growing towards the sun and those that are taller) will prosper.


What do plants grow towards?

the sun


The plants lean toward the sun is what word?

The plants lean towards the sun is an example of positive phototropism, where plants grow towards a light source.


When a plant leans towards the sun it is a reaction of what?

plants lean towards the sun to gain nutrients, that is an adaptation. They also use th sun photosynthesis plants lean towards the sun for photosynthesis. When they leann towards the sun it is an adaptation


Can plant stems turn to face the sun?

Yes, some plants have the ability to grow and bend towards the sun in a process called phototropism. This movement allows the plant to maximize its exposure to sunlight, which is essential for photosynthesis. Growth towards light is regulated by the plant hormone auxin.


Why do plants show movements to the sun direction?

Plants exhibit movements towards the sun direction in a process known as phototropism to maximize their exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis. By orienting themselves towards the sun, plants can optimize their energy production and growth.


Comparition and contraction between phototropism and gravitropism?

If I am not mistaken, phototropism is when plants grow towards the sun. Gravitropism is when plants grow towards the ground.


Do plants grow towards a light source?

Yes. My dad grew a bunch of plants near a window- they were clearly growing towards the sun.


Why do corn stalks stand up?

probably because they are going towards the sun. most plants that are above ground reach towards the sun.


What cause plants to bend towards the light?

Plants bend towards light through a process called phototropism, which is driven by the unequal distribution of the plant hormone auxin. When light shines on one side of a plant, auxin accumulates on the shaded side, promoting cell elongation there. This growth causes the plant to bend towards the light source, optimizing its ability to photosynthesize. This adaptive response helps maximize light absorption for energy production.
