Biology Plant Growth and Development NEET

Match Column-I and Column-II and select the correct option.

Column-I | Column-II (A) Auxin | (1) Herring sperm DNA (B) Cytokinin | (2) Inhibitor of growth (C) Gibberellin | (3) Apical dominance (D) Ethylene | (4) Epinasty (E) Abscisic acid | (5) Induces amylase synthesis

(A)A-(3), B-(1), C-(5), D-(4), E-(2)Correct
(B)A-(1), B-(3), C-(2), D-(5), E-(4)
(C)A-(4), B-(5), C-(1), D-(2), E-(3)
(D)A-(2), B-(4), C-(3), D-(1), E-(5)

Answer: (A)

Solution

Auxin maintains apical dominance, so A matches (3). Cytokinin was discovered from herring sperm DNA (as kinetin), so B matches (1). Gibberellin induces amylase synthesis in the germinating cereal aleurone layer, so C matches (5).
