Question

Movement of plants away from the gravity is called:

• A. Positive Phototropism
• B. Negative Phototropism
• C. Negative Geotropism
• D. Positive Geotropism

Answer 1

The correct option is C Negative Geotropism

Movement of plants away from the gravity is called negative geotropism.
In this case, gravity is a stimulus to which the plant can show two responses:
i) It can move towards the gravity source - positive geotropism.
ii) It can move away from gravity source - negative geotropism.
