Solution
The correct option is A True
Abscisic acid is a ubiquitous plant hormone which plays an important role in the inhibition of seed germination and budding. It is known as the plant stress hormone and is involved in the response of plants to weather stress, such as tolerance to cold and drought.
Ethylene promotes senescence and abscission of plant organs especially of leaves and flowers.
