Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my general plant biology have Plant hormone auxin function?
Cause: Auxin is the primary plant growth hormone that controls cell elongation, apical dominance, phototropism (growth toward light), gravitropism (response to gravity), and lateral root formation.
Solution: Use auxin for rooting hormone when propagating cuttings
Prevention: Understand that pruning tip growth redirects auxin to lateral buds, causing bushier growth.

Why does my general plant biology have Plant hormone cytokinin function?
Cause: Cytokinin promotes cell division (cytokinesis), delays leaf senescence (aging), promotes shoot formation, and counteracts auxin-induced apical dominance.
Solution: Apply cytokinin to delay leaf yellowing
Prevention: Understand that aging leaves yellow partly due to declining cytokinin levels.

Why does my general plant biology have Plant hormone gibberellin function?
Cause: Gibberellin controls stem elongation, seed germination, flowering time, and fruit development. Without gibberellin, plants remain as dwarfs with compressed stems.
Solution: Apply gibberellin to stimulate elongation in dwarf plants
Prevention: Cold treatment (vernalization) can break gibberellin dormancy in seeds.
