Question
Draw the experiment of seismonasty and label It.
Answer
Seismonasty is a type of nastic movement in plants that occurs in response to mechanical stimulation, such as touch or vibration. It is commonly observed in sensitive plants such as the Mimosa pudica (also known as the “touch-me-not” plant).
During seismonasty, the plant’s leaves and petioles (the stalk that attaches the leaf to the stem) fold inwards and droop downwards in response to a stimulus. This is achieved through changes in turgor pressure within specialized motor cells located in the plants.
