The correct Answer is:
To determine which pair is not correctly matched, we will analyze each option provided in the question regarding plant hormones and their functions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze the first option: Gibberellic Acid (GA) - Leaf Fall** - Gibberellic Acid is known for promoting growth, particularly in stem elongation and seed germination. It does not cause leaf fall; instead, leaf fall is primarily associated with abscisic acid. - **Conclusion**: This pair is incorrectly matched. 2. **Analyze the second option: Cytokinin - Cell Division** - Cytokinins are plant hormones that promote cell division and growth. They play a crucial role in the process of cell division in plants. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 3. **Analyze the third option: IAA (Indole-3-Acetic Acid) - Cell Wall Elongation** - IAA is a type of auxin that is responsible for cell elongation and growth, particularly in stems. It promotes the elongation of cells, which leads to growth. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 4. **Analyze the fourth option: Abscisic Acid - Closes Stomata** - Abscisic Acid is known for its role in stress responses, including the closure of stomata during drought conditions to reduce water loss. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. ### Final Answer: The pair that is not correctly matched is **Gibberellic Acid - Leaf Fall** (Option 1).
