Solution

The leaves of touch-me-not plant show seismonasty. Its leaves respond to vibrations when they are touched or shaken. The speed of the response depends on the magnitude of the stimulus. Flicking the leaf hard will cause the leaf to close faster whereas a gentle touch at the tip of a leaf will lead to a slower response.
