The hormone that helps in Parthenocarpy?
Correct answer: D. Gibberellin
- A. Abscisic acid
- B. Cytokinin
- C. Ethylene
- D. Gibberellin
Explanation
Gibberellins can induce parthenocarpy, the development of fruit without fertilisation, often producing seedless fruits. Students may choose cytokinin because it promotes cell division and growth, but gibberellin is the hormone class commonly associated with inducing parthenocarpic fruit development.

About Chemical Coordination and Hormones
Chemical coordination uses hormones released by endocrine glands and carried in blood to specific target cells. Coverage includes the pituitary, thyroid, pancreas, adrenal glands, ovaries and testes, feedback control, and the contrast between slower, longer-lasting hormonal responses and rapid nervous coordination.
