Chapter 37, Problem 5TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction: An organism’s response to an external or an internal stimulus is known as its behavior. Plant movement is one of the examples of plant behavior. Chemical signals which are transported within the body of a plant are known as plant hormones. Some of the examples of plant hormones are auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, ethylene, abscisic acid, and brassinosteroids.
