Question 37
In Figure (a), (b) and (c), which appears more accurate and why?
(a) appears more accurate because it is showing positive geotropic movement with roots and negative geotropic movement with the stem.
Geotropism is the growth of the parts of plants in response to the force of gravity. The upward growth of plant shoots is an instance of negative geotropism and the downward growth of roots is positive geotropism.
