The different types of growth response demonstrated by the plants are as follows:
Growth response:
- Phototropism: The ability of the plant to show growth response towards the light.
Example: Sunflower
- Geotropism: The ability of the plant to show growth response towards the gravity.
Example: Development of roots in plants.
- Chemotropism: The ability of the plant to show growth response towards the chemicals.
Example: Flower converting into fruit in all the plants.
- Hydrotropism: The ability of the plant to show growth response towards the water.
Example: Roots of tomato, carrot and radish.
- Thigmotropism: The ability of the plant to show growth response towards the mechanical stimulation.
Example: Movement of creepers in a support.
