Question
Chapter 38, Problem 17TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine: Whether expanding knowledge of the molecular basis of plant signaling molecules could improve agricultural productivity in the future.
Introduction: Plant hormones are chemical molecules produced by plants in extremely low concentration for regulating growth and development. Many of the signaling molecules in plants are also involved in defensive response against disease and insects.

You accidently break the growing tip off the top of one ofthe plants. After a few weeks, you notice that instead of growing tall like the otherplants, the plant with the broken tip has grown denser with thicker lateral shootsthan the other plants.
