Indoor Plant Gravitropism and Geotropism

FAQ About Indoor Plant Gravitropism and Geotropism

What is the role of auxin in indoor plant gravitropism?

Auxin is a plant hormone that plays a crucial role in gravitropism by promoting cell elongation. In gravitational responses, auxin distributes more abundantly on the lower side of the stem or root, facilitating differential growth and causing the stem to bend upward or the root downward.
