Ethylene c. Cytokinin d. Abscisic acidOn a hot, dry day a plant closes its stomata thereby conserving water. Which plant hormone is responsible for the closing of the stomata? ethylene abscisic acid cytokinin auxin gibberellin• On a commercial scale, enhancing the level of _______ (hormone) can help to speed up fruit ripening. • What measure do fruit producers take to slow down fruit ripening that is caused by natural ethylene?• What is a ‘triple response’. Which plant hormone initiates a triple response? • A change in the ratio of ethylene to auxin controls abscission. In the autumn, the amount of __________ decreases, rendering the cells of the abscission layer more sensitive to __________.
- Plant cells communicate in a variety of ways to elicit cellular responses. In the figure below the plant is responding the presence of light with the release of auxin. Auxin was first discovered for its ability to promote growth in plants. It is a plant hormone that inhibits the lengthening and stimulate the formation of lateral roots and root hairs. a) Describe the plant’s response to the presence of light.
