Detailed explanation-1: -Gravitropism is the ability of plants to perceive and respond to the gravity vector and orient themselves accordingly. The gravitropic pathway can be divided into three main components: perception, biochemical signaling, and differential growth.
Detailed explanation-2: -This response to gravity is called Geotropism. Geotropism causes roots to grow downward, and stems and leaves to grow up.
Detailed explanation-3: -Gravitropism (also known as geotropism) is a coordinated process of differential growth by a plant in response to gravity pulling on it. It also occurs in fungi. Gravity can be either “artificial gravity” or natural gravity. It is a general feature of all higher and many lower plants as well as other organisms.
