Assertion: Auxin, produced predominantly in shoot tips, is transported from cell to cell down the stem and this is called as polar transport.
Reason: The polar transport is due to the gravitational forces.

1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false

The control of apical dominance is due to interaction of auxins, cytokinins and a newly discovered plant hormone called as:
1. Brassinosteroids
2. Jasmonates
3. Salicylic acid
4. Strigolactones

The newly discovered PGR brassinosteroids have effects qualitatively similar to:
1. Auxins
2. Gibberellins
3. Cytokinins
4. Ethylene
