Tracing Apical Dominance Through Auxin-Cytokinin Balance, Worked Capstone
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
This capstone traces apical dominance as a live balance between two antagonistic hormones rather than a fixed structural feature of the shoot.
Watch for
Treating apical dominance as fixed rather than balanced is the error — a change to either hormone's supply, not only removal of the bud itself, shifts the outcome, which is why applying synthetic auxin to a cut stem reproduces suppression that removing the bud alone would have released.
