The correct option is B Abscission
Senescence is the process by which cells stop dividing and growth is arrested without undergoing cell death. It is also called as ageing. Abscission is also called as fall. Shedding of leaves, flowers or fruits due to change in hormone balance in plant is called as abscission. Photoperiodism is the phenomenon in which formation of flowers in plants depends on the relative length of dark or light periods. Vernalization is the process by which plant can be induced to flower by exposing it to the prolonged period of low temperature or cold. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
