The compound 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid is a synthetic auxin that is used as an herbicide. It is applied by spraying it on the plant

After spraying with synthetic auxin, the plant undergoes a short period of what appears to be rapid growth and then wilts and dies. Which of the following statements could explain how a synthetic auxin kills weeds? A. The herbicide causes the leaves to grow quickly. More photosynthesis occurs, but the increase in sugar production blocks phloem vessels and the plant dies. B. The plant grows so rapidly that the cellular integrity of the plant is destroyed (i.e., cell walls break down), damaging transport systems within the plant. C. Spraying the plant clogs the stomata, so photosynthesis can no longer occur. D. The synthetic auxin cannot move through PIN channels, thus destroying the natural auxin concentration gradient and inhibiting growth.
