Gravitation effect on a plant's growth is called geotropism. It affects it by it's height,and sometimes affects how many flowers it produces. It causes roots to grow downward (positive geotropism) and stems/branches to grow upward (negative geotropism). So it gives plants an 'up' and 'down' or lateral directions to grow the correct structures in the right places.

∙ 12y agoWhen plants grow their stem and their leaves grow upward while their roots
- grow downward. The Direction that a plant grows has nothing to do with the way that you plant the seed .The stem always find their way down. The Stem
knows how to find their way to the roots.They always find their way down.
If we want to live in the space station or an other planet we would need to
Plant Vegtables or Fruit where it would be no gravity . we would face many
problems like growing plants because of their diffrent or zero. Welcome

∙ 11y agoDefinitely gravity has an effect on the growth of plants.It always tends to decrease the rate of growth of plants.

Greavity have any effect on plants justify?
Gravity affects the growth of plants as well as their height, and that is why roots will always grow downwards into the soil, while heavy branches will always tend to bend downwards.

Does gravity effect the phenotype of a plant?
Perhaps you mean to ask if gravity "affects" the phenotype of a plant? In a word, yes. For instance, a tree typically grows in a vertical direction. If a pot that holds a young tree is tilted at an angle, the new growth will be vertical, although the existing trunk will be at an angle relative to the ground. Most plants that live on land can tell which way is up and respond to this as they grow. "To effect" something means to make it happen. Gravity does have effects on plant phenotypes, but gravity doesn't "effect" the phenotype of a plant.

Seeds would not be able to root in soil, so the plant would not be able to germinate, or begin growing.

How does color effect the growth of plants?
No, color does not effect the growth of plants. If the plant is yellow, it will grow fine. Now, if the plant is brown, that could mean it is dead.
