Understanding Geotropism: How Plants Respond to Gravity

Geotropism refers to the directional growth of plants in response to gravity. Plants exhibit two types: negatively geotropic growth (moving away from gravity) and positively geotropic growth (growing towards gravity). This adaptation ensures optimal positioning for light and water absorption. Additionally, the process of transpiration involves the uptake of water through roots, which is later released as water vapor from leaf pores. Both geotropism and transpiration play essential roles in plant health and environmental interaction.
