Question

What is the phenomenon that is causing the bean seedling to bend as shown?

Answer 1

Answer:

phototropism

Explanation:

Phototropism is the phenomenon that is causing the bean seedling to bend as shown.

Phototropism is known to be the growth of a plant or an organism in response to a light stimulus. This means that plants or organisms grow in the direction of the light. From the image shown, we will discover that the bean seedling is bending towards the direction of the sunlight.

This phenomenon usually occur in plants but it can also occur in organisms in fungi.

When the plants grow towards the direction of sunlight, it is known as positive phototropism while when the plants move away from the direction of sunlight, it is known as negative phototropism (skototropism).
