  2. Heliotropism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliotropism

    Heliotropism, a form of tropism, is the diurnal or seasonal motion of plant parts (flowers or leaves) in response to the direction of the Sun. The habit of some plants to move in the direction of the Sun, a form of tropism, was already known by the Ancient Greeks. They named one of those plants after that property Heliotropium, meaning "sun turn".

  3. Phototropism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phototropism

    The light from the lamp (1.) functions as a detectable change in the plant's environment. As a result, the plant exhibits a reaction of phototropism--directional growth (2.) toward the light stimulus. Auxin distribution controls phototropism. 1. Sunlight strikes the plant from directly above. Auxin (pink dots) encourages growth straight up. 2 ...

    is sunflower free since any selection of sets if in one of the disjoint partitions is sunflower free by assumption of H being sunflower free. Otherwise, if r {\displaystyle r} sets are selected from across multiple sets of the partition, then two must be selected from one partition since there are only r − 1 {\displaystyle r-1} partitions.

    Northrop Frye believed that the "merging of imagination and time is the axis on which all Blake's thought turns." [11] "Ah! Sun-flower" (with its constrictions of space-time and its hint at creative, energetic imagination as a potential way out) seems to be an example of this dialectic, as the various responses of critics outlined below show.

    A complete Fermat's spiral (both branches) is a smooth double point free curve, in contrast with the Archimedean and hyperbolic spiral. Like a line or circle or parabola, it divides the plane into two connected regions. Definition of sector (light blue) and polar slope angle α

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_solution

    The IUPAC definition of a solid solution is a "solid in which components are compatible and form a unique phase". [3]The definition "crystal containing a second constituent which fits into and is distributed in the lattice of the host crystal" given in refs., [4] [5] is not general and, thus, is not recommended.
