Question

Select an experimental conclusion to go with plant 3.

A)Auxin (IAA) is capable of inducing apical dominance in the absence of the apical bud

B) Some substance produced in the apical bud keeps the axillary buds in a dormant state

C) Auxin must be actively transported down the stem to inhibit lateral bud growth.

D) In the intact plant, lateral buds have small leaves and are ready to grow but are dormant

Auxin transport induces apical dominance active apical bud 2. L d Lateral buds can grow if apical bud dormant is removed Auxin produced lateral in apical bud inhibits bud lateral bud growth lanolin Auxin applied to Auxin transport decapitated stem inhibitor applied suppresses lateral allows lateral buds buds to grow

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

C) Auxin must be actively transported down the stem to inhibit lateral bud growth.apical paical

The apical bud produces an auxin (IAA) that inhibits growth of the lateral buds further down on the stem towards the axillary bud.
