Question

In the absence of muscle cell how do plant cell show movement

Answer 1

In the absence of muscle cells plants show either nastic movement or tropic movement. Nastic movement is achieved by changing the amount of water present in the cells of the plant. The petiole of the leaves executes the nastic movement.

The tropic movement is achieved by the action of different hormones in the plants. Phototropism is achieved by the hormone auxin. The wilting of leaves is done by the abscisic acid hormone. Growth of the fruits and seeds is achieved by cytokinin
