AQA GCSE Biology: Required Practical - Plant Growth Responses

This deck covers the required practical investigating the effect of light or gravity on the growth of newly germinated seedlings. It includes the aim, variables, a suitable method, expected results, and conclusions related to phototropism and gravitropism.
A dramatic close-up photograph of a vibrant green seedling, its delicate stem clearly bending and reaching intensely towards a strong, golden beam of light entering from the side, symbolizing phototropism. The background is softly blurred and dark, emphasizing the seedling's determined growth in a 3:2 landscape frame.

Lesson#1
In this deck, we'll explore the required practical for investigating plant growth responses. Plants can't move from place to place, but they can change the way they grow in response to their environment. We'll look at how to set up a fair test to see how light and gravity affect the growth of young seedlings.
Quiz#2
What is the general term for a plant's growth response to a directional stimulus?

tropism

Quiz#3
What is the name for a plant's growth response towards or away from light?

phototropism

Quiz#4
What is the name for a plant's growth response in relation to the force of gravity?

gravitropism

Lesson#5
The main purpose of this required practical is to investigate the effect of a directional stimulus, specifically light or gravity, on the growth of newly germinated seedlings. This helps us understand how plants are adapted to their surroundings.
Quiz#6
What is the aim of the required practical on plant growth responses?

to investigate the effect of light or gravity on seedling growth
