Phototropism is the growth of a plant towards light, driven by auxin distribution.

The cambium is responsible for secondary growth, allowing plants to increase in thickness.

Root hairs increase the surface area for water and nutrient absorption from the soil.

Stomata facilitate gas exchange, allowing carbon dioxide in and oxygen out.

The cambium is responsible for secondary growth, allowing plants to increase in thickness.

Auxins are the primary hormones that promote cell elongation, particularly in stems.

Cytokinins stimulate cell division, promote root growth, and inhibit leaf senescence.

Mycorrhizae enhance nutrient absorption, particularly phosphorus, from the soil.

Mycorrhizal fungi enhance nutrient absorption, particularly phosphorus, for plants.

The apical meristem is responsible for cell division and growth at the tips of roots and shoots.

Phototropism is the growth response of a plant to light, typically resulting in bending towards the light source.

Transpiration is the process of water vapor loss from plant leaves through stomata.

Temperature is a critical factor for seed germination, as it affects metabolic processes.

Iron is a micronutrient, while nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are macronutrients.

Maturation is not a recognized phase of plant growth; the main phases are germination, juvenile, and reproductive.

The gametophyte phase is where gametes are produced in the plant life cycle.

Roots anchor the plant and are responsible for water and nutrient absorption.

Roots are primarily responsible for nutrient storage in many plants.

Flowers are the reproductive structures of angiosperms, facilitating pollination and seed formation.

Photosynthesis is the process that converts light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

The gametophyte stage is where gametes are produced in the plant life cycle.

The anther is the part of the stamen that produces pollen in flowering plants.

Primary growth occurs at the tips of roots and shoots, leading to an increase in length.

Tropic growth refers to directional growth in response to environmental stimuli, such as light or gravity.

Ferns are vascular plants, possessing a vascular system for transporting water and nutrients.

Sexual reproduction in plants often involves the production of spores, especially in ferns and mosses.

Xylem is the tissue responsible for transporting water and minerals from roots to other parts of the plant.
