Auxins response to external stimuli like water, sunlight, support(thread), gravity etc.
Auxins
Auxin stimulates growth
Auxins are plant hormones that play a key role in both phototropism (growth towards light) and gravitropism (growth in response to gravity). In phototropism, auxins accumulate on the shaded side of the stem, promoting cell elongation and bending towards the light source. In gravitropism, auxins redistribute in response to gravity, causing differential growth and either upward (negative gravitropism) or downward (positive gravitropism) bending of the stem.
Fruit tissues elongate in response to auxins, promoting growth. Auxins help to stimulate cell division and elongation in fruit tissues, allowing the fruit to increase in size. Additionally, auxins regulate fruit development by influencing factors such as fruit ripening and seed formation.
Auxins play a crucial role in phototropism, the plant's growth response to light. They promote elongation of cells on the shaded side of the plant, causing it to bend towards the light source. Auxins help to redistribute growth hormones, leading to asymmetric growth and the plant's directional growth towards light.
auxin
Auxins are plant hormones, typically growth regulators.
Auxins regulate cell elongation and division in plants by promoting cell growth in response to specific environmental cues. They can also influence root development, apical dominance, and tropic responses like phototropism and gravitropism. Auxins work by triggering changes in gene expression and protein activities within plant cells, ultimately leading to various growth responses.
bootyThe auxins plants do deform the plant cells.
There are auxins in plants (They help the plant in it upward growth). They tend to move away from direct sunlight.so when the plant is directly casted by light, the auxins in the plant move to the other side of the plant that has less light, thus their concentration becomes more on one side (the side with less light). Now since they help in the plant growth, the side of the plant with more of the auxins tends to grow faster than the side with less auxins, therefore the plant bends towards the light.
The presence of other hormones, especially auxins, influence the effects of cytokinins.
Auxins are primarily transported in the phloem tissue of plants. They can move in both directions within a plant using the phloem, allowing for the long-distance signaling that regulates plant growth.
