B) are more easily stimulated in the presence of nicotine.
C) are harder than normal to stimulate in the presence of nicotine.
D) cannot be stimulated at all in the presence of nicotine.
E) are uncoordinated in the presence of nicotine.

Auxin moves between cells through a process called polar transport. Auxin molecules move from one cell to the next through PIN proteins. However, their movement is unidirectional. What accounts for this unidirectional movement?

A. PIN proteins are only found on the basal side of the cell. B. PIN proteins are only found on the apical side of the cell. C. Auxin diffuses down its concentration gradient. The concentration of auxin molecules decreases as you move down the stem away from the apical meristem. D. Auxin moves independently of its concentration gradient because the presence of the PIN protein provides a channel that auxin can "leak" through to get into adjacent cells. E. Auxin in the unprotonated form can move between cells by going into adjacent spaces occupied by plant cell walls. The movement of auxin is lateral, not unidirectional.
