If the shoot tips are removed, they cannot produce auxins, so
phototropism

Phototropism would not occur as without the production of auxins, phototropism is not possible. Auxins causes the elongation of plant cells and allows them to point in the direction in which they get the most light, which is the sun in most cases.
