The statement that illustrates a plant tropism is: **a) A stem bends toward the light.**
Tropism refers to a plant's growth response to environmental stimuli, such as light (phototropism), gravity (gravitropism), and touch (thigmotropism). In this case, the bending of the stem toward the light is an example of phototropism.
