thermotropism

noun ˌθəːmə(ʊ)ˈtrəʊpɪz(ə)mTHərməˈtrōpizəm

mass nounBiology

The turning or bending of a plant or other organism in response to a directional source of heat.
〔生〕向热性，向温性
Example sentencesExamples
- It is proposed that these and related mechanosensitive channels may participate in a variety of responses to temperature, including thermotropism, hydrotropism, and both cold damage and cold acclimation.
- Whether thermotropism would explain the observed relative preference of this parasite for chickens, which have a slightly higher body temperature than guinea pigs, remains to be determined.
- It appears to be a case of thermotropism, where the flower buds sense the cold downdraft of a thunderstorm and constrict before the drowning rain arrives.
