🌱 Plant Tropisms: Auxin Bending Between Light and Gravity (2D)
A seedling in a pot with a light source at any angle and a pot that can be tilted or rotated on a clinostat. Choose the light direction and intensity, the stem and root gain and watch the stem settle at an angle where the light and gravity responses balance, while the root turns downward, with orange dots showing auxin on the growing side. Plots show angle against time, the balance angle against light direction and intensity, and the turning rates. Four in-page numerical checks.
