Why do Bananas 🍌🍌 grow upward 👆??

"B-an-an-a" , the nature's gravity defying fruit and every KG ( even grade 10😅) student's most confusing dictation word ( The fruit which is easy to eat but difficult to write ).

Come lets find the science behind this Upside Down Yoga position !!

Bananas 🍌 show a phenomenon called Negative Geotropism - Cheating the Gravity and Soil to leap towards the Sun 🌞 ( That's why they say Bananas are not grounded😅 ). This phenomenon is supported by agent " Auxin " which is a hormone present in the tips of stem.

Agent Auxin helps in adapting Banana plant to place their leaves and unripened bananas to receive as much sunlight possible for Photosynthesis.

Banana is curved because of the tug of war between gravity and agent auxin.

So the final verdict is that whether a banana is yellow or green it should be as good as Pathanjali Guru Ramdev in Yoga.
