Plant Tropism Notes TROPISM: the movement or growth of a plant in response to a stimulus POSITIVE/NEGATIVE *Picture and Definition* PHOTOTROPISM GEOTROPISM HYDROTROPISM POP QUIZ 1. 4. 2. 5. 3.

Types of Tropisms Positive Tropism—growth towards the stimulus Negative Tropism—growth away from the stimulus Plant is growing TOWARDS the light Stem is growing AWAY from the center of the Earth (against gravity)

Phototropism Phototropism: the growth of a plant in response to LIGHT

How does Phototropism work?

Geotropism or Gravitropism Geotropism: (also called gravitropism) the growth of a plant in response to gravity

Positive and Negative Negative Geotropism: Plant stems growing upward away from the center of the Earth. Positive Geotropism: Downward growth of plant roots (towards the center of the Earth).

What direction do you think the roots are growing?

Hydrotropism Hydrotropism: the growth of a plant in response to moisture
