Allotropism
(gcide) | Allotropism \Al*lot"ro*pism\, Allotropy \Al*lot"ro*py\, n. [Gr.
? other + direction, way, ? to turn: cf. F. allotropie.]
(Chem.)
The property of existing in two or more conditions which are
distinct in their physical or chemical relations.
[1913 Webster]
Note: Thus, carbon occurs crystallized in octahedrons and
other related forms, in a state of extreme hardness, in
the diamond; it occurs in hexagonal forms, and of
little hardness, in black lead; and again occurs in a
third form, with entire softness, in lampblack and
charcoal. In some cases, one of these is peculiarly an
active state, and the other a passive one. Thus, ozone
is an active state of oxygen, and is distinct from
ordinary oxygen, which is the element in its passive
state.

Geotropism
(gcide) | Geotropism \Ge*ot"ro*pism\, n. [Gr. ge`a, gh^, the earth + ? to
turn.] (Biol.)
A disposition to turn or incline towards the earth; the
influence of gravity in determining the direction of growth
of an organ.
[1913 Webster]
Note: In plants, organs which grow towards the center of the
earth are said to be positively geotropic, and those
growing in the opposite direction negatively geotropic.
In animals, geotropism is supposed by some to have an
influence either direct or indirect on the plane of
division of the ovum.
[1913 Webster] || |

1. (Bot.) A tendency towards moisture.
[1913 Webster]
2. (Bot.) In a broader sense, any curvature or turning
induced in certain growing plant organs under the
influence of moisture.
Note: When the movement is toward the moisture, as is the
case in most roots, the phenomenon is called {positive
hydrotropism}; when away from the moisture, as in the
case of hyphae of certain fungi, {negative
hydrotropism}.
[Webster 1913 Suppl.] |
Isotropism
(gcide) | Isotropism \I*sot"ro*pism\, n.

move or curve under the influence of light. In ordinary
use the term is practically synonymous with
heliotropism.

2. (Microbiology) exhibiting movement in a direction toward
(positive phototropism) or away from ({negative
phototropism}) a source of light.
