Assertion(A): | Apical dominance is most likely adaptive. |
Reason(R): | It is important for the plant to devote energy to growing upward so that it can get more light to undergo photosynthesis. |

Statement I: | Kinetin occurs naturally in plants. |
Statement II: | Zeatin does not occur naturally in plants. |
I: | is used to initiate flowering and for synchronising fruit-set in pineapples. |
II: | induces flowering in mangoes. |
Assertion (A): | The most widely used compound as source of ethylene is ethephon. |
Reason (R): | Ethephon in an aqueous solution is readily absorbed and transported within the plant and releases ethylene slowly. |
