Question
Chapter 38.1, Problem 1C
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way in which the yellow color of phototropins relate to the wavelengths of light to which they respond.
Introduction: A phenomenon by which plants response to their environmental stimuli such as light, gravity, or water is known as tropism. There are different types of tropism that are named according to the stimulus associated with it.
