Phototropism is a growth response in plants in which their growth responds to light intensity.

Phototropism can be Positive Phototropism or Negative Phototropism.

In the shoot system of plants the growth is due to positive phototropism where the shoots grow towards the light.

In the root system of plants the growth is due to negative phototropism where the roots grow away from the light.
