प्रश्न
Define the following term:
Clinostat
उत्तर
The clinostat is a device that employs rotation to counteract the effects of gravitational force on plant growth. It is composed of two plant pots: one is stationary, while the other is rotated. The rotating plant demonstrates positive geotropism, as it is equally exposed to gravity from all directions, whereas the stationary plant exhibits negative geotropism, growing in the opposite direction.
