BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Auxin promotes cell division and meristem maintenance and also plays an important role in the establishment of cellular patterning. Plant development thus integrates the regulation of cell proliferation and growth with further cell expansion and differentiation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: Auxin promotes cell growth and elongation of the plant. In the elongation process, auxin alters the plant wall plasticity making it easier for the plant to grow upwards. Auxin also influences rooting formations.

Detailed explanation-3: -Auxins are a class of phytohormones that control numerous processes of plant growth and development (Davies, 2013). Auxins are known primarily for their ability to induce cell elongation. In addition, they stimulate cell division, vascular differentiation, and root initiation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Auxins control the growth of plants by promoting cell division and causing elongation in plant cells (the cells get longer). Stems and roots respond differently to high concentrations of auxins: cells in stems grow more. cells in roots grow less.

Detailed explanation-5: -In the shoots, auxin stimulates cell elongation and thus high concentrations of auxin promote growth (cells become larger)
