Mimosa pudica, also known as the sensitive plant, responds to touch or movement by folding its leaves. This reaction is due to the rapid loss of turgor pressure in the cells located at the base of the leaflets, causing them to close. This mechanism is a defense strategy to deter herbivores and protect the plant from potential threats.
