Solution

Auxin:

  1. Auxins are plant hormones that are important for plant body development and play a critical role in the coordination of various behavioral and growth processes in plant life cycles.
  2. These hormones aid in the process of stem elongation.
  3. Plants that are exposed to a lot of light have cells that don't extend as much, resulting in a weaker stem.
  4. Thus, Auxins are destroyed by light.
