The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Thermonastic Movement**: Thermonastic movement refers to the plant's response to temperature changes. It is a type of nastic movement, which is a non-directional response to stimuli. 2. **Identifying Stimuli Types**: Plants can respond to various environmental stimuli, including light, touch, chemicals, and temperature. Each type of response has a specific name: - **Photonastic Response**: Response to light. - **Thigmonastic Response**: Response to touch. - **Chemonastic Response**: Response to chemicals. 3. **Focusing on Temperature Response**: The question specifically asks about thermonastic movement, which is related to temperature changes. This means that the plant's movement or growth is triggered by variations in temperature. 4. **Examples of Thermonastic Movements**: - **Stomatal Closure**: High temperatures can cause the stomata (tiny openings on leaves) to close, which helps reduce water loss. - **Flower Opening and Closing**: Some flowers open or close based on temperature, responding to the warmth of the day or the coolness of the night. 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the understanding of thermonastic movements and their relation to temperature, we conclude that thermonastic movement is specifically related to temperature stimuli. **Final Answer**: Thermonastic movement is related to temperature stimuli. ---
