Answer to Question 1

Any three of the following: cotton, velvet, nylon, acetate, plastic, burlap, paper twist, lace, and polypropylene.

Answer to Question 2

The leading theory regarding why plants grow in an arch toward the sun is that the presence of light causes auxins to move from the light side of the plant to the dark side. Because auxins stimulate the growth of plant cells by making them longer, the dark side grows faster than the lighted side. This makes the plant curve in the direction of the light as it grows.
