The five types of tropisms are- 1. Phototropism, 2. Geotropism, 3. Hydrotropism, 4. Chemotropism and 5. Thigmotropism. Tropic movements are helpful in the growth of plants. Phototropism is an example of tropic movements. The stems of plants respond to sunlight by growing or bending towards it. The plants also turn their leaves to face the sun. This enables their leaves to get as much sunlight as possible that is required for photosynthesis.
