    Match the phytohormones given in Column- I with their functions given in Column- II. Choose the answer with correct combination of alphabets.
    Column-I (Phytohormones) Column-II (Functions)
    A. Auxins p. breaking seed dormancy
    B. Gibberelines q. inducting fruit ripening
    C. Cytokinins r. formation of abscission layer
    D. Ethylene s. root initiation
    t. Chloroplast development and chlorophyll synthesis

    A)  A = p, B = r, C = q, D = s

    B)  A = r, B = s, C = p, U = t

    C)  A = s, B = p, C = t, D = q

    D)  A = s, B = t, C = r, D = q

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Auxins (IAA, IBA, NAA and 2, 4-D) induce root initiation in stem cuttings. Gibberellin is used to breaking dormancy whereas ethylene induce fruit ripening and cytokinin delay in senescence.
