The correct option is C
P - Cytokinin, Q - cell division, Y - Abscisic acid, Z - inhibits

Cytokinins promote cell division, and are present in greater concentration in areas of rapid cell division, such as in fruits and seeds.

Abscisic acid is one example of a hormone which inhibits growth. Its effects include wilting of leaves.
