e. all of the above
3) in the experimenet with auxin the evidence that auxin was effective as a hormone was supplied by
a. diffusion of agar into auxin
b. diffusion of auxin into agar
c. growth of the attached leaves when the agar block was placed on top of the plant
d. formation of longer cells on the auxin side of the stem
e. formation of shorter cells on the auxin side of the stem
4) which of the following statements under the topic of informant consensus (agreement) is incorrect?
a. household gardening or cultivation of a plant type indicates the value of a particular medicinal plant
b. success in the marketplace or selling the plant in the market indicates its value
c. historic depth or time currency - a plant was used in earlier times and is used now
d. consistency in teh preparation produces consistent results indicating the value of a plant

I clicked on this thread thinking you were asking questions about botany... not asking us to answer the questions that were already being asked of you. That being said, those are really easy ones, and there's no excuse for not being able to research those answers. Good luck to you.
