How will a plant grow when its on its side?
As long as the roots are in the ground the plant will grow towards the light.
What does gravitropism affect?
Gravitropism affects the roots of a plant, so say when you turn it on its side, after a while its roots will make an "L" shape.
Can you separate African violets from the roots?
If you have suckers or if you put down a leaf and new small plantlets have emergerd do this; knock out root ball, separate any single crowned plants and plant them into pots. A sucker is a plant that has grown out the side of an original plant but is small, carefully slice it from the mother plant leaving at least one inch of stem if possible, plant in soil less mix, moisten then place it in a zip lock baggy so new plant crown can produce roots. This will take about one to two months. Place in good light.
What happens if you take a plant and tie two wet sponges around the roots and you hang it up side down in a window?
I hypothesize that the water will go down by gravity and water the plant and the plant will get sunlight by the sun at the window. I think I did a similar experiment to this except it was with a plastic bag.
How do plant roots break apart rocks?
Plant roots can secrete organic acids that help dissolve minerals in rocks, weakening their structure. Additionally, as roots grow and expand, they can exert physical force on the rock, causing it to break apart. Over time, these processes contribute to the weathering and fragmentation of rocks by plant roots.

What keeps a plant upright?
No, the cells in a plant structure are much stronger than ordinary animal cells. The cells in the plant are in lines that go upwards, ie the stem, the combination of the strong cells and then being in lines upward keep the plant standing. The cells are also what causes the plant to follow light. Try it. Get a plant and put a lamp on one side of it, leave it for 1 hour, then move the lamp to the complete opposite side and leave for 1 hour, you will notice that the plant tilts towards the light and this movement is caused by the cell which keep the plant upright!
If you plant a plant upside down right side up and sideways which way does it grow?
A plant needs to be planted right-side up with the roots in the soil and the stem exposed to air and sunlight. If planted upside down or sideways, it will struggle to grow properly and may not survive due to incorrect orientation for water and nutrient absorption.
What is a geotropism?
Gravitropism is a response to gravity. And the plant roots will follow the gravity also you cannot change the place where the roots will grow also if you will put it on the opposite side of the gravity it will also grow down.
How do roots of plants get oxygen needed by them for breathing?
Plants respire through tiny openings or holes called stomata that are present on the underside of the leaves. Stomata trap air (like oxygen) and the exchange of gases takes place in side the plant cells.
Where the xylem and phloem vessels take place in the pant?
Xylem vessels are responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem vessels transport sugars and other organic compounds produced through photosynthesis to different parts of the plant. Xylem vessels are typically found closer to the center of the plant stem while phloem vessels are located on the outer side, forming a vascular bundle.
