Pani-rosa [81]
I believe that plant hormonal control differs from animal hormonal control in that there are no separate hormone-producing organs in plants as there are in animals.  Hormones regulate cellular processes in targeted cells locally and moved to other locations, in other function parts of the plant. Hormones also determine the formation of flowers, stems, leaves, the shedding of leaves, and the development and ripening of fruit. Plants unlike animals they lack glands that produce and secrete hormones and instead each cell is capable of producing hormones.
