Question
Answer
which of the following hormone induces cell division
cytokinin
which is a weedicide ?
2,4-D
a plant cell has potential to develop into a full plant. this is called
totipotency
the plant hormone controlling fruit ripening is
ethylene
induction of cell division and delay in senescence is done by
cytokinins
curling of tendrils is due to
thigmotrophism
bud dormacy can be inuced by
ABA
avena curvature test is a bioassay for examining the activity of
auxins
induction of cell division and delay is senescence is one by
cytokinins
gibberellins can promote seed germination because of their influence on
prouction of hyrolyzing enzymes
senescence as an actie developmental cellular process in the growth and functioning of a flowering plant,is indicated in
leaf abscission
movement of leaves of mimosa pudica are due to
seismonasty
thigmotropic movement is best shown by
movement in tendrils
phytohormones are
regulators synthesided by plants and influencing physiological processes
fruit and leaf drop at an early age can be prevented by the application of
auxins
what is a stress hormone/ produced during extreme conditions
abscisic acid
auxetic growth is
increase in cell volume only
a chemical believed to be involved in flowering is
florigen
a plant hormone used for inducing morphogenesis in plant tissue culture is
cytokinins
which combination of gases is suitable for fruit ripening
80 per cent C2H4 and 20 per cent CO2
ABA is involved in
increased cell division
which hormone prevents falling of fruits
NAA
hormone responsible for senescence
ABA
dwarfness can be controlled by treating plant with
gibberellic acid
seed dormancy is due to the
abscisic acid
plants deficient of element zinc, show its effect on the biosynthesis of plant growth hormone
auxin
differentitation of shoot is controlled by
high cytokinin: auxin ratio
cell elongation in the internodal region of the green plants takes place due to
gibberellins
the pigment that absorbs red and far red light in plants is
phytochrome
which one is a long day plant
spinach
proteinaceous pigments which control activities concenred with light
phytochrome
the method that renders the seed coat permeable to water so that embryo expansion is not physically retarded is
scarification
the response of different organisms to environmental rhythms of light and darkness is called
photoperiodism
what will be the effect on phytochrome in a plant subjected to continous red light
level of phytochrome decreases
in short day plants, flowering is induced by
photoperiod below a critical length and uninterrupted long night
flowering dependent on cold treatment is
vernalisation
which one increases in the absence of light
elongation of internodes
which one of the following can replace vernalisation
gibberellins
phytochrome is involved in
photoperiodism
treatment of seed at low temperature under moist condition to break its dormancy is called
stratification
vernalization stimulates flowering in
carrot
leaf fall can be prevented with the help of
cytokinins
abscisic acid controls
leaf fall and dormancy
hormone primarily concerned with cell division is
cytokinin/zeatin
abscisic acid causes
stomatal closure
the hormone responsible for apical dominance is
IAA
cytokinins
helps retain chlorophyll
the regulator which retards ageing /senescence of plant parts is
cytokinins
auxin can be bioassayed by
avena coleoptile curvature
an enzyme that can stimulate germination of barley seeds is
alpha-amylase
foolish seedling disease of rice lead to the discovery of
GA
abscissic acid
stomatal closure
which acid is a derivative of carotenoids
abscisic acid
one of the synthetic auxin is
NAA
acts as an antagonist to gibberlins
ABA
the pineapple whhich under natural conditions is difficult to blossom has been made to produce fruits throughout the year of application of
NAA, 2,4-D
during seed germination its stored food is mobilized
gibberlins
a few normal seedlings of tamato were kept in a dark room. after a few days they were found to have become white coloured like albinos. which term is used to describe them
etiolated
DR F. Went noted that if coleoptile tips were removed and placed on agar for an hour, the agar would produce a bending when placed on one side of freshly cut coleoptile stumps. significance is
it demonstrates polar movement of auxins
