Question

Explain the term 'ethylene' . How is it beneficial for plants?​

Answer 1

Heya,

Here's your answer...

Ethylene is considered the aging hormone of plants. It helps some fruits ripen, can cause a plant to die, and is also produced when a plant is injured. Ethylene can have a number of effects on the life of plants, including the ripening of the fruits apples and pears.

Ethylene serves as a hormone in plants. It acts at trace levels throughout the life of the plant by stimulating or regulating the ripening of fruit, the opening of flowers, and the abscission (or shedding) of leaves.
