To draw a correct conclusion about plant hormones based on the information you've provided, we need to analyze the possible options:
a. They most strongly inhibit growth at low concentrations. - This statement seems to contradict the typical role of plant hormones, which generally stimulate growth rather than inhibit it.
b. They stimulate maximum root and stem growth at different concentrations. - This option suggests that the hormones affect root and stem growth differently based on concentration, which aligns with how various hormones can have diverse effects.
c. They stimulate maximum stem growth at low concentration. - This implies that low concentrations specifically enhance stem growth, which might only be true for certain hormones (like auxins) and not all.
d. They stimulate maximum root growth and stem growth at the same concentration. - This option suggests that both root and stem growth are maximized simultaneously at the same concentration, which is not typically the case, as different tissues react differently to varying hormone levels.
Given this analysis, option b: "They stimulate maximum root and stem growth at different concentrations" seems to be the most accurate conclusion about plant hormones.
