Question 6
Geotropism (or gravitropism) is the plant's response to gravity. Option A and B (both say response to gravity, likely a typo but same meaning), C is temperature (thermotropism), D is light (phototropism), E is wind (not a standard tropism term here). So the correct one is the option about gravity response.
Thigmotropism is the plant's response to touch (e.g., vines wrapping around supports). A is gravity (geotropism), B is temperature, C is light (phototropism), E is wind. So D is correct.
Basic plant organs are roots, stems, and leaves (they have distinct functions: absorption, support/transport, photosynthesis). B has rhizoids (non - vascular) and meristems (tissue, not organ), C has meristems (tissue), D has floral parts (not basic organs), E has root caps (tissue) and nodes (part of stem). So A is correct.
