statocytes, organelles do plants have in their roots that helps them to sense gravity, correct answer is B.
what are statocytes ?
In higher plants, statocytes are the cells which sense gravity. They contain amyloplasts-statoliths, amyloplastic organelles which are filled by starch or sediment at the bottom of the cells. Coleoptiles, shoots, and inflorescence stems all have an elongating area that really is home to statocytes.
how do they help in sensing gravity ?
When the plant is reoriented in the gravity field, the starch-filled plastids (also known as statoliths) in the statocytes, that are highly polarized cells, fall to the physical bottom.
Hence, statocytes help in sensing gravity.
