Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The movement of plant parts in response to the direction of gravity is known as geotropism. The growth of plant roots is an example of geotropism as it grows towards the direction of gravity.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are two types of geotropic movement positive geotropism and negative geotropism. If the plant parts move towards the gravitational force, it is known as positive geotropism.
Detailed explanation-3: -Geotropism is directional movement in response to gravity. Charles Darwin was one of the scientists who first showed positive gravitropism in the roots and negative gravitropism in stems.
Detailed explanation-4: -Root shows positive geotropism and shoot shows negative geotropism.
