Sunflowers are bright and cheerful flowers.But did you know they have a special secret？They can follow the sun!
When a sunflower is young，its face turns from east to west during the day，always facing the sun.This is called "heliotropism".In the morning，the young sunflower faces the east to welcome the rising sun.As the sun moves across the sky，the sunflower slowly turns its face to follow it.At night，it turns back to the east，getting ready for the next morning.
Why do they do this？Scientists believe this helps the young plant grow better.By facing the sun all day，the sunflower gets more sunlight.More sunlight helps it grow strong and tall.
However，when the sunflower becomes mature and its flower head gets heavy with seeds，it stops moving.The stem becomes hard and fixed.Then，the mature sunflower usually faces towards the east all the time.Facing the east in the morning helps the flower dry the water drops on it quickly and warm up faster，which is better for attracting bees.
So，next time you see a field of sunflowers，remember that they are not just pretty faces—they are smart sun followers.
30.What is the scientific name for a plant following the sun？ ______
A. Photosynthesis B. Germination C. Heliotropism D. Pollination
