Thermotropism in Heartleaves Study

The document describes an experiment on thermotropism in heartleaves (Houttuynia cordata Thunb) plants. Sample 1 and Sample 2 of heartleaves were planted indoors at 25°C and observed over 60 days, while a control group was planted outside. The heartleaves planted indoors at 25°C developed bigger leaves, stronger branches, and grew shorter than the control group planted outside, demonstrating the effect of thermotropism.
