Question

In plants, the purpose of auxins is to

A. bring about apical dominance.
B. produce phytochrome.
C. regulate abscission.
D. cause plant dormancy.

I'm leaning towards A. but am not fully sure...?

Answer 1

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. In plants, the purpose of auxins is to produce phytochrome. The main function of auxin is to help plants grow. Auxin stimulates plant cells to elongate, and the apical meristem of a plant. Hope this answers the question.
