What is the response of plants to periods of light and dark?

photoperiodism


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.


A plant grows toward the light The plants action is an example of?

its an response :)


What is the response of plants to periods of light and dark called?

It is called photoperiodism


How does a plant respond to the sunlight outside?

A plants architecture determines the response to sunlight, but all plants require light to survive. Phototropism is the name assigned to the movement the makes to maximize its sun source.


What is the movement of plant in response to stimuli in the environment?

tropism


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 factor that causes a response in plants?

Because plants were designed too be effient, and they will make minor changes to promote efficiency


Why do plants grow better under red light?

The photosynthesis pathway has phytochrome systems which response to red light.


What are examples of stimulus reaction in plants?

Examples of stimulus reaction in plants include phototropism (response to light), gravitropism (response to gravity), thigmotropism (response to touch), and hydrotropism (response to water). These responses allow plants to adapt to their environment and optimize their growth and survival.


Define tropism and give two examples?

Tropism is the directional growth response of a plant in response to a stimulus. Two examples of tropism are phototropism, where plants grow towards light, and gravitropism, where plants grow in response to gravity.


What do tropisms demostrate about plants?

Tropisms are plant's response to a particular stimulas. Tropisms demostrate that plants can response to light, water, gravity and chemicals. We, humans know what we want and with our knowledge we seek for it. Unlike humans, plants doesn't know what they want and how to look for it. So plants response to stimulus in order to get what they want and to survive. Plants turn towards light in order to make food. Tropisms helps plants to survive as plants cannot move and has no knowledge.
