Certain plants react to gravity by growing against it or towards it. It is the tropism of gravity called a geotropism. For example, if a potted plant falls over then it will continue to grow towards the sky.
If a mudslide occurs and it drastically tilts the land where a tree grows, the tropism allows the tree to grow upwards.
Alternatively, geotropism works for roots as well. Roots will respond to gravity by growing downwards. It can be observed that no matter which way a seed is planted the roots and the shoots respond to gravity in opposite ways. Plant hormones, auxins are responsible for this response.
Phototropism is the response of plants to light.
The group name for push gravity and friction is contact forces.
Weight is the force of gravity on your body.
Another name for gravity is gravitational force. It is the force of attraction that exists between any two objects with mass.
the force of gravity
One such force is gravity; basically, gravity is the ONLY force that affects ALL objects.
a "tropism"; geotropism for response to gravity and phototropism for response to light
Another name for geotropism is gravitropism. It refers to the growth or movement of an organism in response to gravity.
The growth response of seedlings to environmental stimuli is called "tropism." Specifically, phototropism refers to their growth towards light, while gravitropism involves their response to gravity, with roots growing downward and shoots growing upward. These responses help seedlings optimize their growth conditions and enhance survival.

Meristems is the name of the specific areas where plant growth occurs.

phototropic (details from another answer) movement of or growth of plant in response to external stimulus. e.g. growth of root towards gravity - geotropism growth of shoot towards the light - phototropism hydrotropism is exhibited by lengthening of roots towards water source and finally, thigmotropism is growth towards solid objects -support by climbers
You shouldn't be using the internet to find out the answers to kerboodle!
response to water: hydrotropism, response to light: phototropism, response to chemicals: chemotropism, response to gravity: geotropism, response to touch: thigmatropism
Botanists are scientists who study plants, including their structure, growth, reproduction, and interactions with the environment.
Ice, water, wind, plants, acids, oxygen, gravity (falling and breaking).
A greenhouse which is used to grow plants anytime than it own period growth and its enviroment like growing tropical plants in a cold place
