Solution

The correct option is A Elongation of internodes
  • Gibberellic acid stimulates intercalary meristem which promotes elongation of the internode. This is called as bolting effect.
  • Bolting is when agricultural and horticultural crops prematurely produce a flowering stem before the crop is harvested in a natural attempt to produce seeds.

So, the correct answer is option A.
