One of the synthetic auxins is
A IBA
B NAA
C IAA
D GA

Detailed Solution

Auxins isolated from plants (natural auxins) are indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and indole butyric acid (IBA).
Synthetic auxins are NAA (naphthalene acetic acid) and 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid).
GA is gibberellic acid, a gibberellin and not an auxin.
Hence the synthetic auxin among these is NAA.
