A tendril is a modified stem, leaf, or petiole. They are typically more round than flat and function to hold the plant up as it grows. Their movement is caused by differential growth on the part of the tendril which is not in contact with anything. Where the tendril comes in contact with a fence, trellis, or almost anything else, the growth and elongation of cells in that area are slowed. The cells not in contact with something continue normal growth and elongation. The effect is that the tendril grows around whatever it touches.
