Plant responses to the environment
Commercial uses of plant hormones:
• rooting compound – encourages the growth
of roots in stem cuttings.

Commercial uses of plant hormones:
• rooting compound – encourages the growth
of roots in stem cuttings.
• ripening hormone – enables plants to ripen
at the same time. Sprayed on the crop, often
while being transported.

When the bloodstream contains glucose, the pancreas is
stimulated to produce the hormone insulin. Insulin causes

glucose to be usable by the body cells and excess to be
stored in the liver as glycogen. If the body later needs
glucose and none is available in the blood, the liver can
convert glycogen back into glucoseOestrogen
