2. They are the same as long day plants.

3. They do not have a critical photoperiod.

4. All of these.

Bud dormancy is induced by:-

1. ABA

2. ethylene

3. IAA

4. gibberellic acid.

Pruning of plants promotes branching because the auxillary buds get sensitized to:-

1. ethylene

2. gibberellin

3. cytokinin

4. indole acetic acid

Phytohormones are?
(1) hormones regulating growth from seed to adulthood

(2) growth regulators synthesised by plants and influencing physiological process

(3) hormones regulating flowering

(4) hormones regulating secondary growth

Refer the given figures on photoperiodism and select the correct option.

Abscisic acid is known as the stress hormone because it

(1) breaks seed dormancy

(2) induces flowering

(3) promotes leaf fall

(4) promotes closure of stomata

Which of the following plant growth regulators (PGRs) promotes root initiation, flowering and
induced parthenocarpy?

(1) Gibberellin

(3) Cytokinin

(4) Ethylene

Vernalisation is subjected to plants growing in ?

(2) sub tropical areas

(3) temperate areas

(4) hot region/arctic region

Gibberellins can promote seed germination because of their influence on

(1) rate of cell division

(2) production of hydrolyzing enzymes

(3) synthesis of abscisic acid

(4) absorption of water through hard seed coat
