Sensitive Plant (Mimosa Pudica) - This very unique flower plant may scare you when you touch it! It has movements called seismonastic movements (reaction to physical shock). At night, the leaves will also fold and bend in movements known as nyctonastic movements (reaction to absence of light). In this family the leaves and leaflets are often capable of movement due to changes in the water pressure of the swollen leaf and leaflet bases. The leaves assume a folded or "sleeping" posture at the end of the day that is triggered by a decrease in light level. However, the sensitive plant is also capable of rapid movement in response to touch or application of heat.
