Plants are able to respond to their environment in a number of different ways. This often involves growing towards (positive) or away (negative) from a certain stimulus, called tropism. If a plant displays positive tropism, it is growing towards that stimulus. If a plant displays negative tropism, it is growing away from that stimulus.
Match each type of tropism below with the description that best applies to it.
