Plant Hormones Concept Map: Key Branches Explained

A plant hormones concept map organizes the chemical messengers that control plant growth and responses. Plant hormones are small signaling molecules produced in one part of a plant and acting in another. The main groups are auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, abscisic acid and ethylene, each with distinct roles in development and stress.

  • Auxins: drive cell elongation, phototropism and gravitropism
  • Gibberellins: promote stem elongation, seed germination and flowering
  • Cytokinins: stimulate cell division and delay leaf aging
  • Abscisic acid: mediates dormancy and drought response by closing stomata
  • Ethylene: controls fruit ripening and leaf abscission

Use a hormone map to compare where each hormone is made, what it does and how the groups interact. Create your own version from your notes with CogniGuide to revise faster.

Plant Hormones Concept Map Questions

Answers on the main hormone groups and making your own map.

What are the five main plant hormone groups?

The five classic groups are auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, abscisic acid and ethylene. Each has characteristic effects on growth, dormancy, fruiting or stress responses in plants.

What does auxin do in plants?

Auxin promotes cell elongation and directs growth toward light (phototropism) and gravity (gravitropism). It is produced mainly in shoot tips and young leaves and moves downward through the plant.

Which file types can I use to build this map?

You can upload PDF, Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPTX), text or Markdown files, or images of your notes. You can also type the topic directly.

Is it free to make a plant hormones map?

Yes. The free plan allows 5 creations a week with no payment needed. Paid plans raise these limits. You can also turn your map into a quiz.
