Plant hormones serve as chemical messengers between cells and tissues. Auxin is a plant hormone that causes the cells on the shady side of a plant shoot to elongate. The response enabled by auxin is known as ____

A	geotropism
B	transpiration
C	phototropism
D	photosynthesis

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Plant hormones serve as chemical messengers between cells and tissues. Auxin is a plant hormone that causes the cells on the shady side of a plant shoot to elongate.

Detailed explanation-2: -Auxin promotes cell elongation, causing the plant to grow more on the shady side and bend in the direction of the light source.

Detailed explanation-3: -Auxin is a key regulator of plant growth and development, orchestrating cell division, elongation and differentiation, embryonic development, root and stem tropisms, apical dominance, and transition to flowering.
