Experiments have been carried out in which there are three shoots. The tip of one of them is covered to keep out the light. Another one has a cover around the middle of the shoot, leaving the tip and bottom uncovered. The last one is left completely uncovered.
They were left for a few days, and when next examined, only the one with the covered tip had not moved. The other two had bent towards the light. This shows us that auxin is produced in the tip, as the bending of the plant is only prevented when the tip is covered, as this experiment shows.
