A Geotropism

 Geotropism is the growth of the parts of plants with respect to the force of gravity. The upward growth of plant shoots is an instance of negative geotropism ; the downward growth of roots is positive geotropism. I took a picture with this plant because the roots of the plant are growing downward, while the stem is growing upward and curving a little.
