Detailed explanation-1: -Wall properties regulate the differential growth of the cell, resulting in a diversity of cell sizes and shapes. The plant hormone auxin is well known to stimulate cell elongation via increasing wall extensibility. Auxin participates in the regulation of cell wall properties by inducing wall loosening.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -In roots, a high concentration of auxin inhibits cell elongation, slowing growth on the lower side of the root, while cells develop normally on the upper side and causing the root to bend toward the high concentration of auxin and thus causing the root to grown down.
