Which is not an example of a behavioral adaptation in plants? A. thorns growing on rose stems B. vines curling around a fence C. tree roots growing downward because of gravity D. sunflowers turning toward light

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's B, because rose having thorn has nothing to do with behavioral adaptation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no C sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean A.

OpenStudy (callmekiki):

Really? I'd say D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why?

OpenStudy (callmekiki):

If you plant a sunflower in the sunlight, and then later plant it in the shade, it will reach for the sunlight. Sometimes the plant even damages itself to reach the sunlight.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@CallMeKiki That's adapting to the environment, no? There looking for "not an example"

OpenStudy (callmekiki):

Oh. Okay. I didn't read "not." Oops. Damn it.

OpenStudy (callmekiki):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol, it's okay :)
