Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Kinetin, a type of cytokinin was isolated from autoclaved herring sperm DNA. It has cell division-promoting activity. Auxin is a plant hormone. It promotes stem elongation and thus regulates apical dominance. Gibberellic acid is a plant hormone which breaks the dormancy. Before germination, it stimulates the synthesis of amylase enzyme. Amylase hydrolyzes starch into glucose which is used to provide nourishment to the seed embryo. Ethylene is a plant hormone that causes the downward bending of the plant part. This is called as epinasty. Abscisic acid is a plant hormone that acts as the inhibitor of growth.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Pick up correct statements.
(A) Cytokinins delay senescence
(B) Auxins regulate apical dominance
(C) Ethylene enhances seed germination
(D) Gibberellins cause falling of immature leaves

  1. $a, c$

  2. $a, d$

  3. $a, b$

  4. $b, c$

  5. $b, d$

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Cytokinin is a plant hormone that promotes cell division. It delays senescence. Auxin promotes stem elongation and thus regulate apical dominance. Ethylene is also called as ripening hormone as it helps in the ripening of fruits. Gibberellic acid prevents falling of immature leaves. 

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Match the columns and choose the correct combination.

Growth Regulator    Action
$(a)$ Abscisic acid $(1)$ Delays leaf abscission
$(b)$ Ethylene $(2)$ Inhibits seed germination
$(c)$ Cytokinin $(3)$ Herbicide
$(d)$ Auxin $(4)$ Hastens fruit ripening

  5. $a - 3, b - 4, c - 1, d - 2$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Abscisic acid is a plant hormone. It is also called as stress hormone as its concentration increases during stress condition. During unfavorable environmental condition, it inhibits seed germination and induces seed dormancy. Ethylene is a plant hormone. It is also called as ripening hormone as it hastens fruit ripening in plants. Cytokinin is a plant hormone that induces cell division. It delays the abscission of leaves. A 2, 4-D is a synthetic auxin, a plant hormone. It acts as herbicide as it kills weeds.

Thus, the correct answer is 'a−2,b−4,c−1,d−3'.
