Solution

The correct option is D touch
  • Roots do not respond to touch.
  • The movement of plant roots towards the moisture(water) in the soil is called hydrotropism.
  • The bending of roots away from the burning candle is an example of phototropism.
  • The movement of a plant part in response to gravity is called geotropism.
