Auxin promotes geotropism by redistributing through the plant in response to gravity. In roots, auxin accumulates on the lower side causing elongation of cells and downward growth, while in shoots, it accumulates on the upper side causing inhibition of elongation and upward growth. This differential distribution of auxin helps plants respond to gravity and grow in the right direction.

auxin plays an important role in the growth of meristemetic tissue so as to increase the height of plant.
Plants rich in auxin include willow trees, soybeans, corn, peas, and sunflowers. Auxin is a plant hormone that regulates various aspects of plant growth and development, such as promoting cell elongation, root initiation, and apical dominance.

Auxin controls the growth of the plant. Auxin in the roots of the plant inhibits growth whereas in the stems in the stems it encourages growth.
Auxin is a hormone that is found solely in plants.
