Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The transition that allows plants to respond to external and internal signals is known as phase change. This refers to the developmental changes in a plant that allow it to move from one phase/stage of development to another, such as from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. These changes are regulated by various external and internal signals, such as photoperiod, temperature, and hormones. Cloning, initiation, abscission, and perennial development are all distinct concepts that may be related to plant development, but they are not directly related to the transition that allows plants to respond to environmental and internal cues in the way that phase change is.
