Heliotropic movements. — The action of the leaf or stem for placing the blades in the proper posi- tion for receiving light in response to the sensitive- ness of the plant to light is termed heliotrojnsm. This may be observed in house plants grown by a window. Here all of the leaves have moved in such manner as to make their blades face the window. If such a plant is turned halfway round so that the leaves face away from the window, they will quickly regain their former position. Perform this e...xperi- 74 THE NATURE AND WORK OF PLANTS ment with a geranium, and note the position of the leaves five or six hours and a day later.
Repeat the experiment by bringing a plant from the open air and placing it in a box with one small opening. Sketch the position of the stems and leaves and do the same a day later. In what region has the movement taken place, the leaf stalk or the stem to which it is attached? The movements of roots away from the light, § 46, are to be recalled in this connection.
