9
The inerease in the intensity of light increases rate
of growth by accelerating cell division at the growing
as of the stem.
How does quality of light affect the growth in
plants?
‘The red light favours elongation of cells and the blue
light, hances cell division but retards cell
enlargement.
Of all the environmental factors which ones
are the most important for controlling growth
and development of plants?
Those factors are temperature and light.
Give definition of growth correlation.
The relationship that exists between the different
growth rates of various parts of a plant body is
called growth correlation,
What did Thimann and Skoog conclude about
