The correct Answer is:
To determine which pair is not correctly matched, we will analyze each pair one by one based on the functions of the plant hormones mentioned. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Pair: Cytokinin - Cell Division** - Cytokinins are plant hormones that promote cell division in plant roots and shoots. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 2. **Identify the Second Pair: IAA - Cell Wall Elongation** - IAA stands for Indole Acetic Acid, which is a type of auxin. Auxins promote cell elongation by loosening the cell walls. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 3. **Identify the Third Pair: Abscisic Acid - Stomatal Closure** - Abscisic acid (ABA) is known as the stress hormone and plays a crucial role in closing stomata to reduce water loss, especially during water scarcity. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 4. **Identify the Fourth Pair: Gibberellic Acid - Leaf Fall** - Gibberellic acid (GA) is a plant hormone that promotes growth and is responsible for processes such as seed germination and stem elongation. It does not promote leaf fall; rather, it helps in the formation of leaves. - **Conclusion**: This pair is not correctly matched. ### Final Answer: The incorrect pair is **Gibberellic Acid - Leaf Fall**. ---
