To determine:
The response of the lateral buds if an individual removed a plant’s shoot apical meristem and applied auxin to the cut surface.
Introduction:
The size of the shoot and root systems of plants must be in balance so as the roots grow, the shoots also grow enough to support the plant. Auxin produced by apical meristem of shoot and Cytokinin by apical meristem of roots promote this balance.
To explain:
The response of the lateral buds if an individual removed a plant’s shoot apical meristem and applied auxin to the cut surface.
Introduction:
The plant hormones also called as phytohormones are chemical substances secreted by specific cells that regulate the growth of plants. Various plant hormones influence many aspect of life cycle of plant by altering the expression of gene.
