Question

A plant is observed to have deep roots and tendrils that wrap around objects. When pair of tropisms correctly describe these responses?

Hydrotropism and Geotropism

Phototropism and Thigmotropism

Hydrotropism and Thighmotropism

Geotropism and Phototriopism

Answer 1

That's not even one from one of the picks

Answer 2

The plant's deep roots can be attributed to **geotropism** (or gravitropism), which is the response of a plant to gravity, causing roots to grow downwards. The tendrils wrapping around objects is a response known as **thigmotropism**, which is the growth movement exhibited by plants in response to touch or physical contact with objects.

Thus, the correct pair of tropisms that describe these responses is:

**Geotropism and Thigmotropism**.
