Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which hormone is involved in the process of apical dominance? (2019)
  • Step 1: Understand what apical dominance means. It is the phenomenon where the main shoot of a plant grows more strongly than the side shoots.
  • Step 2: Learn about hormones in plants. Hormones are chemicals that help control growth and development.
  • Step 3: Identify the hormone involved in apical dominance. The hormone responsible is called auxin.
  • Step 4: Know the role of auxins. Auxins help the main shoot grow and inhibit the growth of lateral (side) buds.
  • Step 5: Conclude that auxins are primarily responsible for maintaining apical dominance.
