Plant Hormones

Stimulus A change in organism’s environment

Stimulus

Response An organisms reaction to change.

Response

Tropisms Tropism = plant’s growth response toward or away from a stimulus through the action of auxins.

Phototropism Plants grow toward a source of light

Explain how a plant grows towards light. (4 marks) 2.The auxins diffuse down the shoot and cause cells behind the tip to elongate. 3.There is greater growth on the shady side of the young shoot. 4. The shoot grows towards the light - this is known as PHOTOTROPISM. 1.Auxins are produced in the shady side of the tip.

Gravitropism  A plant grows with or against gravity A plant’s stems or trunk grow up, against the pull of gravity. A plant’s roots grow down, with the pull of gravity
