IN PLANTS plant stems grow towards light (Auxins are plant growth hormones. They work by making cells grow longer, and divide more.) The Auxin collects on the dark side of the shoot; therefore, more growth will occur on this side of the plant. Therefore, the shoot will gradually lean towards the sun , important for photosynthesis. They need light for photosynthesis
