Tropism is the easiest plant behavior to recognize; it means growing in a particular direction. Phototropic plants, for example, grow toward the sun. Plants also send their roots down or sideways based on the climate, in order to find water (hydrotropism).

What are instinctive adaptations?

Instinctive adaptations are behaviors that organisms are born with and do not need to learn. These adaptations help organisms survive and reproduce in their environment, such as a bird building a nest or a deer freezing in place when it senses danger. They are evolutionary traits that have developed over time to increase an organism's chances of survival.


Why did Mendel did thousands of experiment on pea plants?

To study genetics, traits, and the behaviors of those traits.


Does a butterfly meet its basic need by instinct or by Learned behavior what leads you to your conclusion?

A butterfly primarily meets its basic needs through instinct rather than learned behavior. Instinctive behaviors, such as seeking nectar or finding suitable habitats for laying eggs, are hardwired and essential for survival and reproduction. These behaviors are typically innate and do not require prior experience or learning. This conclusion is supported by the fact that butterflies exhibit these behaviors universally across their species, regardless of individual experience.


Do plants have learned behaviors?

Plants do not have learned behaviors in the same way as animals do, as they lack a central nervous system. However, they can exhibit responses to their environment through mechanisms like tropisms, where they grow towards or away from stimuli such as light or gravity. These responses are a result of genetic programming rather than learned behavior.
