Thigmotropism is a directional growth movement which occurs as a mechanosensory response to a touch stimulus. Thigmotropism is typically found in twining plants and tendrils, however plant biologists have also found thigmotropic responses in flowering plants and fungi.
Answer: 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H1206 + 6O2
Explanation: This is a balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, six molecules of carbon dioxide react with six molecules of water in the presence of sunlight to form one molecule of glucose and six molecules of oxygen. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants manufacture their own food using sunlight. Plants cells have an organelle known as chloroplast which contains chlorophyll a green pigment that traps energy from the sun. The energy trapped by the chlorophyll is used by plants in the presence of carbon dioxide and water to drive the synthesis of glucose with the release of oxygen as the by-products.
Seed plants have an evolutionary advantage for several reasons. For one, the seeds can disperse easily. Furthermore, seeds can time their germination. For example, some seeds only germinate when they experience a period of being frozen.
They help with storing "food" in fruits and foods to make them edible for us people.
