Ethylene, as an example of a plant hormone, may have multiple effects on a plant, depending on all of the following except the
A)site of action within the plant.
B)developmental stage of the plant.
C)concentration of ethylene.
D)altered chemical structure of ethylene from a gas to a liquid.
E)readiness of cell membrane receptors for the ethylene.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer
