The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which one of the following is a set of natural growth regulators?", we will analyze the options provided and identify which ones consist solely of natural growth regulators. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs)**: - Plant growth regulators are chemicals that influence the growth and development of plants. They can be natural or synthetic. 2. **Identify the Types of Natural Growth Regulators**: - The primary natural growth regulators include: - Auxins (e.g., Indole Acetic Acid - IAA) - Gibberellins - Cytokinins (e.g., Zeatin) - Ethylene - Abscisic Acid (ABA) 3. **Examine the Options**: - **Option 1**: NAA, IAA, IBA - NAA (Naphthalene Acetic Acid) is a synthetic auxin. IAA (Indole Acetic Acid) and IBA (Indole Butyric Acid) are natural, but since NAA is synthetic, this option is incorrect. - **Option 2**: 2,4-D, IBA, BAP - 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid) is a synthetic auxin. IBA is natural, but since 2,4-D is synthetic, this option is incorrect. - **Option 3**: 2,4-D, ABA, Ethylene - Again, 2,4-D is synthetic. ABA (Abscisic Acid) and Ethylene are natural, but due to the presence of 2,4-D, this option is incorrect. - **Option 4**: IAA, ABA, Zeatin - IAA is a natural auxin, ABA is a natural growth regulator (stress hormone), and Zeatin is a natural cytokinin. All three are naturally occurring growth regulators. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Option 4: IAA, ABA, Zeatin**, as all of these are natural growth regulators. ### Final Answer: **Option 4: IAA, ABA, Zeatin** is the set of natural growth regulators.
