Options
- A(A)-(I), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)
- B(A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(III), (D)-(II)
- C(A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)
- D(A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(IV)
Correct answer
C. (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)
Step-by-step solution
(A) Bolting in beet is promoted by Gibberellins. (B) Rapid internode or petiole elongation in deep water rice plants is promoted by Ethylene. (C) Overcoming apical dominance is a characteristic function of Cytokinins. (D) Inducing rooting in stem cuttings is a widely used application of Auxins. Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III). Answer: (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)
