Young sunflowers face the sun when it rises in the east and then track its motion in the sky throughout the day till it sets in the west in the evening. The process repeats the next day, as sunflowers return to their ‘starting’ position, i.e. facing east. Ancient Greeks knew about this phenomenon, and they called such plants Heliotropium, meaning “sun turn”. Today, we call this phenomenon heliotropism. So, how do sunflowers face the sun? Also, do all sunflowers face the sun? • • #science #funfacts #sunflower • • References: • https://nature.berkeley.edu/news/2016... • https://earthsky.org/earth/how-sunflo... • https://science.sciencemag.org/conten... • • Music Credits: • Envato Elements/Subtle Classy Lounge Piano Background by AurusAudio • Video Credits: • Envato Elements • Image Vector Credits: • Envato Elements Shutterstock.com • Frame vector created by studiogstock - www.freepik.com • Technology vector created by studiogstock - www.freepik.com • • Original Article Link: https://www.scienceabc.com/nature/sun... • If you wish to buy/license this video, please write to us at [email protected]. • Voice Over Artist: John Staughton ( https://www.fiverr.com/jswildwood ) • SUBSCRIBE to get more such science videos! • / @scienceabc • Follow us on Twitter! • / abc_science • Follow us on Facebook! • / sciabc • Follow our Website! • https://www.scienceabc.com
