Solution

The correct option is B Cell division and shoot formation
  • Cytokinins are phytohormones that influence cell division and shoot formation. They also help delay senescence of tissues, help to mediate auxin transport throughout the plant, and affect the internodal length and leaf growth.
  • They have a highly synergistic effect with auxins and the ratios of these two groups of plant hormones affect most major growth periods during a plant's lifetime.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
