Plants respond to changes in their environment. They detect gravity, light, touch, and seasonal changes, and respond to these stimuli in many ways. Which statement best explains this flexibility in response? A) Phenotypes are controlled by one gene that codes for multiple regulatory proteins. B) The genes that regulate plant responses can be expressed in different ways. C) The genes that regulate plant responses can mutate to adjust to environmental changes. D) Phenotypes control the genotypes of individuals, determining plant responses.

Respuesta :

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

Plants have the ability to detect the changes in their environment and respond accordingly. Plants' responses to stimuli is due to the genes that regulate plant responses can be expressed in different ways.

Genes code for hormones and support transport of hormonal synthesis in plants. Plants hormone such as auxin promotes different changes in plant growth in response to light, gravity, touch or seasonal changes and the auxin respond due to transport inhibitor response 2 gene.

Hence, the correct answer is "B".
