Unlike Animal Hormones, Plant Hormones are Mainly

Question

Unlike animal hormones, plant hormones are mainly
A) hydrophobic molecules.
B) products of stresses in the environment.
C) small, easily transportable molecules.
D) unable to cross membranes.
E) direct products of photosynthesis.

Accepted Answer

Plant hormones are small, easily transportable molecules that regulate plant growth, development, and response to environmental stimuli. They are also known as phytohormones and are produced within the plant itself. Unlike animal hormones, they are not directly involved in maintaining homeostasis but are responsible for coordinating the plant's response to various internal and external signals.
