Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Ethylene is a gaseous plant hormone that promotes fruit ripening (climacteric fruits like banana, apple), leaf abscission, and senescence. Auxin, gibberellin, and cytokinin primarily promote growth. Ethylene is used commercially to ripen fruits uniformly. It also stimulates the formation of abscission layers and inhibits stem elongation.
