Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Phototropic responses, or a plant’s ability to reorient organ growth toward (positive phototropism) or away (negative phototropism) from a directional light source, has fascinated researchers for well over a century (Holland et al., 2009).
Detailed explanation-2: -Plants respond to their environment in a variety of ways. The response of an organism, usually a plant, to an environmental stimulus is called a tropism.
