Questions and Answers

What is the difference between tropic responses and nastic responses in plants?

Tropic responses involve slow directional growth movement in plants in response to a stimulus, while nastic responses are the quick movement of a plant in response to an environmental stimulus. Tropic responses are directional and can be positive or negative, while nastic responses are non-directional.

Who first discovered phototropism?

Charles Darwin first discovered phototropism.

Explain the concept of tropic responses in plants and provide examples of different types of tropic responses.

Tropic responses in plants refer to the growth movement in response to a stimulus. Examples of different types of tropic responses include phototropism (response to light), geotropism (response to gravity), chemotropism (response to chemicals), hydrotropism (response to water), and thigmotropism (response to touch or contact).
