Solution

The correct option is B Phototropism

Phototrophic movement is the growth of a plant in response to light.
If the plant part grows towards light, it is called positive phototropism, and if the plant part grows away from light, it is called negative phototropism. The shoot of a plant shows positive phototropism and the root of a plant shows negative phototropism.
