A.
a phenomenon related to fruit ripening
The development of multi-cellular organisms begins from a single-celled zygote, which undergoes rapid cell division to form the blastula. The rapid, multiple rounds of cell division are termed cleavage. After the cleavage has produced over 100 cells, the embryo is called a blastula.
Pruning of plants promotes branching because the axillary buds get sensitized to
ethylene
gibberellin
cytokinin
indole acetic acid.
The plants respond to photoperiods due to the presence of :
enzymes
stomata
phytochromes
phytohormones
In a plant organ which is covered by periderm and in which the stomata are absent, some gaseous exchange still takes place through
aerenchyma
trichornes
pneumatophores
lenticels.
Cork cambium results in the formation of cork which becomes impermeable to water due to the accumulation of
resins
lignins
suberin
tannins.
Gibberellins can promote seed germination because of their influence on
rate of cell division
production of hydrolyzing enzymes
synthesis of abscisic acid
absorption of water through hard seed coat
Avena curvature test is a bioassay for examining the activity of
auxins
cytokinins
gibberellins
ethylene.
