How do auxins promote the growth of a tendril around a support ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Auxins are growth promoting plant hormones that induce cell elongation. When tendril comes in contact with a support, auxin stimulates faster growth on to a part of tendril away from the support. This causes the tendril to coil around the support.
