Asymmetrical production of this hormone inhibits elongation of cells on one side of the apical hook.
Asymmetrical production of this hormone inhibits elongation of cells on one side of the apical hook. Synthesis of this hormone is stopped after the seedling is exposed to light, and its triple response consists of loss of gravitropism, inhibition of elongation, and lateral swelling in stems. Production of this hormone is increased after (*) wounding, and silver salts delay senescence by inhibiting it. For 10 points, name this plant hormone that stimulates fruit ripening and has chemical formula C2H4.
