Why bother with the control plants if they are not going to be sprayed with gibberellic acid

1 answer:

Gibberellic acid is a natural growth hormone present in plants which helps plants to control growth naturally. Spraying additional gibberellic acid helps to stimulate plant growth. So even if it is not sprayed externally, the natural acid present in the plants still controls the growth.

Explanation:

Gibberellic acid (gibberellin) is naturally found in growing apical regions like the shoots, new young leaves, flowers. In the shoots, it helps to increase the inter-node length and thereby increases elongation of a plant through apical growth. They control the growth by acting as chemical messengers.

Farmers usually spray gibberellic acid during seed germination to accelerate plant growth, budding processes, increase foliage and flowering. Spraying farms with bioactive gibberellins have led to a huge increase in plant growth leading to the green revolution.

Explain why the small piece of plant tissue is dipped in disinfectant when growing new plants from using cells from a parent pla

love history [14]

Answer: Disinfectant is a chemical formulation which may include biological components used to reduce the population of a microbe from a living or dead surface.

Explanation:

The plant tissue is treated with a disinfectant before culturing it and growing new plants. This is done to remove dirt, dust, foreign particles like pollen, microbes from the plant tissue surface or from plant part. This help in growth of disease free and contamination free plants. The culture can be utilized for different cycles of plant growth as it remains free from any kind of contamination.
