What else can I help you with?
What is a plants response to gravity?
Plants use gravity to help determine the direction in which to grow their roots and stems. This response is known as gravitropism - roots grow downward with gravity, while stems grow upward against gravity, a process mediated by plant hormones called auxins.
How do plants affect earths landform?
the plants roots sink into the rock and cracks the rock.
What is the earth called where seeds grow?
it is because Earth is the planet with LIFE. and god made plants grow, we also take care the plants so that they will live
The response of roots growing downward is an example of what?
The response of roots growing downward is an example of gravitropism, also known as geotropism. This is a plant's natural reaction to gravity where the roots grow towards the Earth to anchor the plant and absorb water and nutrients.
How does roots grow when the direction of gravity changes?
Plant roots have specialized cells called statoliths that can sense changes in the direction of gravity. When the direction of gravity changes, these cells direct the growth of the roots in a new direction to ensure that the roots continue to grow downward, towards the center of the Earth. This process is known as gravitropism.
In which direction do the roots of plants predominantly grow?
The roots of plants predominantly grow downward, towards the soil.
Do roots always grow down?
The roots of a plant will always grow down. This is to help it find water. The stem grows upwards to find light.
Can you use a sentence with the word Gravitropism?
Is gravitropism why the seed is growing towards gravity?Yes gravitropism is why the roots go towards the center of the Earth.
How did early plants obtain nutrients from earth's rocky surface?
well i say because the roots go deep into earth.
How do plants respond stimuli?
The stimuli that plants respond to include light, water and gravity. Plants grow towards light (phototropism). Also in some plants the flowers will follow the sun as it moves across the sky. Plant roots grow towards water (hydrotropism). Plant roots grow towards gravity/towards the centre of the earth (geotropism). Source(s): I'm a Biology teacher. this is bullcrap it is fake
What is the difference between phototropism and geotropism?
Phototropism - towards light. Think plants, flowers, leaves. They generally turn towards light.Geotropism - towards the earth. Go figure.Hydrotropism - towards water or towards moisture.
Why do the roots of plants bend away from sun light?
Roots of plants tend to grow away from sunlight because they exhibit negative phototropism. This ensures that they grow towards moisture and nutrients in the soil rather than towards the light which roots do not need for photosynthesis. Roots need to grow where they can efficiently absorb water and nutrients to support the plant's growth and development.
What causes a plants root to grow downwards towards the pull of gravity?
The roots are attracted to moisture in the soil
How can plants contribute erosion?
they give off roots spreading towards the erosion and smooth the erosion system
What holds plants tightly to the earth?
The roots of a plant hold it firmly in the ground.
What is the fear of plant roots?
i have always had a feer of roots ever synse i had been 3 years old becouse at scool we had a leson on plant anatamy and we had to re root plants but the second i saw the roots i screamed that seconed i imagined that i was being strangled by a root moster so ever synse when i see roots i cowwer in the sorner or runn away screaming
How do Positive photo tropism and positive gravitropism occur?
Gravitropism is responce to Earth's gravity. If you are talking about plants then a Positive gravitropism grows towards gravity (like roots of plant). A Negative gravitroism grows away from gravity (Like the stems of plants). Hope this help :P
