Across
  1. 5. One of the ways people react to social pressure, just like how plants respond to touch.
  2. 6. The response of plants to light.
  3. 8. also called skototropism is growth away from light.
  4. 11. The leaves of this plant close when touched.
  5. 12. The response of plants to herbivores.
  6. 13. The growth and development of plants in response to light.
  7. 16. Pressure exerted by fluid in a cell that presses the cell membrane against the cell wall.
  8. 17. Protein-based receptors responsible for mediating the phototropic response.
  9. 19. Hormones responsible for cell elongation in phototropism and gravitropism.
  10. 20. The response of plants to wind.
Down
  1. 1. The response of plants to water.
  2. 2. Specialized plastids that contain starch granules and settle downward in response to gravity.
  3. 3. A plant hormone involved in various aspects of plant growth and development, as well as responses to stress.
  4. 4. The response that ensures roots grow into the soil and shoots grow toward sunlight.
  5. 7. The response of plants to touch
  6. 9. The movemwnt of a plant subjected to constant directional pressure.
  7. 10. A phototropism that is growth towards a light source.
  8. 14. A directional response that allows plants to grow towards or away from the light.
  9. 15. The process of increasing in size or developing.
  10. 18. Disease-causing microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, or viruses.
