Answer Key / Explanation : (b) -

(b)

Phototropism is the movement of coleoptile (plant organ) towards the light (due to auxin)

Figure 1 shows incomplete blockage of auxin, but direction of blockage does not favour the bending of coleoptile towards the light source

Figure 2 shows in complete blockage of auxin movement from apical part to lateral part. So, no bending of coleoptile is there

Figure 3 shows incomplete blockage, but the direction favours the bending of coleoptile towards the source

Figure 4 shows no blockage hence, the bending of coleoptile takes place easily
