What is Tropism?

In botanic tropism refers to the biological response of the plant during its development to an external stimulus. These responses are usually noticed as plant motion, forward to or away from the stimulus source.

Stimuli can be good or bad for the plant, and depending on this, the plant will try to get closer or farther. According to this, Tropism can be either positive or negative.

  • Positive tropism ⇒ the plant moves forward to the stimuli source
  • Negative tropism ⇒ The plant moves away from the stimuli source

According to the stimuli, there are different kinds of tropism,

                                                                       

         Tropism                           Stimuli          

  • Phototropism                  Light
  • Geotropism                     Gravity
  • Hydrotropism                  Water
  • Tigmotropism                  Solid object
  • Chemotropism                 Chemical
  • Airtropism                         Air                  

In the exposed example,

  • Stimulus   ⇒  Water from the leaky pipe

  • Tropism   ⇒   Hydrotropism    

  • Response  ⇒ The tree roots grow forward to the leak looking for  

                               water source
