According to modern ideas about phototropism in plants,
| 1. | light causes auxin to accumulate on the shaded side of a plant stem. |
| 2. | auxin indirectly inhibits elongation of plant stem cells |
| 3. | auxin is produced by the apical meristem of the coleoptile and moves downward. |
| 4. | all hormones move downward via the xylem. |
