Geotropism is the bending movement of plants caused specifically by gravity. It can happen when a tree for example, starts to grow on a steep hill. The tree would still grow upward, caused by the pull of gravity. ... In order to grow correctly, plants need four major things; light, water, soil, and nutrients.

Plant stems and leaves grow in the direction of light but also away from the center of the earth's force of gravity. You should see that the little plant seedlings in the jar layed on its side will turn ... We call what is happening "negative geotropism." This means that plants grow and move away from the force of gravity.
