Answer:
Option B, Apply auxin directly to the lower part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.
Explanation:
Options for the question are
A) Apply auxin directly to the shoot tip on the side to which you want the tip to bend.
B) Apply auxin directly to the lower part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.
C) Inject compounds that block auxin receptors into the part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.
D) Plant the roots in two different pots, and apply auxin to the root bucket that is on the same side as the direction you want the plant to bend.
Solution
Auxin is responsible for stem elongation by inhibiting growth of lateral buds. The movement of auxin is opposite to the direction of elongation of cells. Generally, Auxin moves to the dark side which is opposite to the direction i.e the lighter side in which cell elongate . Due to this growth pattern, the stem tip gets curved towards the light.
Hence, option B is correct

Answer:
B. Humans and chimpanzees share a relatively recent common ancestor.
Explanation:
Both the humans and Chimpanzees are the primates that are they belong to the same group called hominids and genus called Homo.
When the DNA sequences of the Chimpanzees and the Humans are sequenced and compared than they showed that 98% of the genome is similar.
In the given question, the single strands of the humans and the chimpanzees base-paired which showed that 98% of the nucleotide sequence is the same. The most possible reason for this similarity is that they both were evolved from the common ancestors and they diverged recently in the past.
Thus, Option-B is correct.
