The correct option is C

BAP


Gibberellin induces stem elongation in rosette plants. Cabbage is a rosette plant with profuse leaf growth and retarded internodal length. Just prior to flowering, internodes elongate enormously. This is called bolting. Bolting can be induced artificially by the application of gibberellins under normal conditions.
