Phototropic curvature is the result of uneven distribution of:

1. gibberellin
2. phytochrome
3. cytokinins
4. auxin

Correct answer: auxin

Solution

Phototropic curvature happens because auxin accumulates on the shaded side of a stem, where it promotes greater cell elongation. This unequal growth bends the plant toward the light.
