Hi Katie,

All plants move in response to external stimuli such as light and gravity. The following science buddies project on plant movement includes background information that answers most of your questions.

Here is a news article that explains more about how plants move.

I hope this helps. Let us know more about your experiment if you have more questions.

Hi Katie,

Thanks for letting me know. I'm so sorry about the virus from the link that we provided. I will notify the science buddies staff about the problem and we'll try to remove the problem link. We definitely are just trying help with science fair projects, not spread computer viruses. Do you remember which link caused the problem? I looked through the information and did not get a virus on my computer, so I must not have checked out the same link that you did.

I'm happy to hear that your teacher liked your science fair project.

Hi Katie - Please do let us know what Science Buddies page you were on and what link you clicked that caused a problem on your computer. We certainly want to make sure that all of our links lead only to valid and virus-free pages.
