Question 1 Report
A student claims that a root placed close to a bright window will bend towards the light. Which statement correctly evaluates this claim?
Roots are negatively phototropic, tending to grow away from light rather than towards it, so the claim is incorrect: roots grow away from light. Roots do respond to stimuli (they are positively gravitropic), and they are not positively phototropic like shoots, so the other evaluations are wrong.
