Option B is incorrect because roots grow away from light as they require darkness and moist environments for growth.
Option D is incorrect because DNA is not a receptor for light or gravity.
Option E is incorrect because auxin is a plant hormone that plays a crucial role in controlling plant growth and development but is not a receptor for light or gravity.
