[JackBean]

1. Plant growth is regulated by the influence of hormones.
Hormones are chemical substances produced by enzymes.
Hormones are produced in certain parts of the plant and then translocated to other parts where they influence particular processes.

2. there are plenty more types of hormones
Fritz Went's experiment, when he decapited plant and put the coleoptile on agar block. After putting this block on decapited plant he promoted the growth
decapite auxine and you will release auxiliary buds from dormance

CKs function: regulation of growth and induction of cell division, delay of senescence, release of auxilary buds from dormancy, progression through cell cycle, differentiation of vascular bundles and of chloroplasts

3. & 4. the function is pretty the same, although at different places. Auxins induce elongation of the cells, so that the plants grows in correct orientation
