A Correct answer
Explanation

IAA (Indole-3-Acetic Acid), the natural auxin, is primarily responsible for apical dominance - where the main shoot tip suppresses lateral bud growth. ABA (abscisic acid) is a stress hormone, GA3 promotes elongation and flowering, and C2H4 is ethylene (ripening hormone).
