Phototropism is the type of growth that the desert cactus plant shows above ground. It grows in response to the high levels of heat and light in the desert. The above ground parts are called the shoots, and the below ground roots. The roots grow in response to the search for moisture in the soil.
a "tropism"; geotropism for response to gravity and phototropism for response to light
The type of plant tropism that involves growth toward a stimulus is called "positive tropism." An example of this is phototropism, where plants bend toward light sources to maximize photosynthesis. This response is driven by differential growth rates on the sides of the plant, allowing it to optimize its exposure to sunlight. Other examples include gravitropism, where roots grow downward in response to gravity.
Mimosa pudica exhibits thigmotropism, which is a type of tropism related to touch or physical contact. This plant is known for its rapid leaf folding and drooping response when touched, serving as a defense mechanism against herbivores. Additionally, it may also show phototropism, as it tends to grow towards light. Overall, its movements are primarily a response to environmental stimuli.
Leaves exhibit positive phototropism, which means they grow towards sources of light. This type of tropism allows leaves to maximize their exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis.

A stimulus is any change in the environment that elicits a response from an organism. Tropism, on the other hand, is a directional growth response of a plant to a stimulus, such as light or gravity. In other words, tropism is a specific type of response exhibited by plants in reaction to environmental stimuli.
There are several types of prickly plants. Some of these plants include cactus, milk thistle, prickly pear, and prickly poppy.
Yes, cactus plants can be infected by cold places. The two main types of cactus plants are the desert cactus and the jungle cactus. The desert cactus handles higher heat and light levels and lower moisture levels. The jungle cactus handles higher heat and humidity levels and lower light levels.But neither type of cactus handles cold, damp temperatures. Chilling temperatures makes a cactus susceptible to all sorts of fungal problems, such as basal stem rot. The cactus' tissue ends up softening and blackening. It has to be dried out or removed.
No, hickory is a type of tree and not a cactus.
