Positive feedback mechanism. A process whereby an initial change in an atmospheric process will tend to either reinforce the process (positive feedback) or weaken the process (negative feedback). See Feedback mechanism.
Gravitropism in Higher Plants1. Since 1806, we have known that plant organs use gravity as a guide for growth (Knight, 1806). The gravity-directed growth process, called gravitropism, dictates upward shoot growth to ensure a proper positioning of the leaves for efficient photosynthesis and gas exchange.
