The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Identify the Scientist**: The question asks about FW Went, who is a significant figure in plant physiology. 2. **Understand the Contribution**: FW Went is known for isolating a plant hormone called auxin. 3. **Source of Isolation**: He isolated auxin from the choleoptile tip of oat seedlings. The choleoptile is the part of the plant that protects the emerging shoot. 4. **Function of Auxin**: Auxin is essential for various plant growth processes, including apical dominance, which is the phenomenon where the main stem grows more vigorously than the side stems. 5. **Clarification of Terms**: The choleoptile is the upper part of the seedling that develops into the shoot apex, while the choleoriza is the part that develops into the root apex. 6. **Conclusion**: The correct association for FW Went is the isolation of auxin from the choleoptile tip of oat seedlings. **Final Answer**: FW Went is associated with the isolation of auxin from the choleoptile tip of oat seedlings. ---
