The one which is a weed killer is___________?

Correct answer: C. 2 4-D

  • A. IAA
  • B. NAA
  • C. 2 4-D
  • D. GA

Explanation

2,4-D is a synthetic auxin that acts as a selective herbicide, especially against many broad-leaved weeds. IAA and NAA are auxins mainly discussed as natural or synthetic plant-growth regulators, while GA is gibberellic acid and promotes growth. Students may choose IAA because it is an auxin, but it is not the standard weed killer named here.
