Plant Growth and Development objective questions and Answers investigate a portion of the variables which administer and control these formative cycles. These variables are both intrinsic (interior) and extrinsic (outside) to the plant. The various other subtopics in the chapter are Growth Differentiation, Dedifferentiation and Redifferentiation, Development, Plant Growth Regulators, Photoperiodism, Vernalisation and then some.
