When you plant a seed, gravity is an external force the seed must overcome in order to sprout. Which direction do the roots and shoots grow under the influence of geotropism?

a)

The roots will grow downward with the force of gravity and the shoots will grow up out of the ground away from gravity.

b)

The shoots will grow downward with the force of gravity and the roots will grow up out of the ground away from gravity.

c)

The roots will grow downward with the force of gravity and the shoots will grow up out of the ground toward sunlight.

d)

The roots will grow sideways way from the force of gravity and the shoots will grow up out of the ground avoiding the sunlight.
