The hormones that control and coordinate the activities in plants are called plant hormones.

The four types of plant hormones are:

(i) Auxins: It promotes cell enlargement and cell differentiation in plants.

(ii) Gibberellins: It helps in breaking the dormancy in seeds and buds.

(iii) Cytokinins: It promotes cell division in plants.

(iv) Abscisic acid: It promotes the dormancy in seeds and buds.
