HydroptropismHydrotropism is the tendency for an organism to grow towards (or away from) water. The most common example is that of plant roots preferentially growing in the direction of a source of water. In other cases a root might grow away from excess water, which would also be considered an instance of negative hydrotropism. Hydrotropism is a special case of tropism.
