Solution

The correct option is B The rate of photosynthesis
Auxin is a plant hormone that plays important role in plant growth. It stimulates stem elongation by increasing permeability of cells which in turn increases uptake of water by cells. It also enhances plasticity of cell walls which results in cell enlargement. It also increases the respiration rate.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
