{'plant growth regulators': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'carbohydrates': [5, 0, 1, 3], 'carotenoids': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'fatty acids': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'indole compounds': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'proteins': [1, 1, 0, 0], 'simple molecules': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'glucose': [8, 0, 3, 5], 'vitamins': [3, 0, 5, 9], 'adenine derivatives': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 2: indole compounds, adenine derivatives, carotenoids, and terpenes. Plant growth regulators are small molecules that play a crucial role in controlling various aspects of plant growth and development. They are diverse in their chemical composition and can be grouped into different classes.

Option 1 suggests carbohydrates, fats, and proteins as plant growth regulators, but these molecules are not typically classified as such. Carbohydrates are important for energy storage and structural support, while fats and proteins have various functions in plants, but they are not specifically known as plant growth regulators.

Option 3 includes fatty acids, glucose, and vitamins, which are essential components for plant growth, but they are not categorized as plant growth regulators. Fatty acids are important for membrane structure and energy storage, glucose is a sugar used for energy, and vitamins are involved in various biochemical reactions, but none of them are considered primary plant growth regulators.

Option 4 suggests vitamin C, vitamin D, and glucose as plant growth regulators. While glucose is a vital energy source for plants, and vitamin C and vitamin D have important roles in plant health, they are not typically grouped as plant growth regulators.

Overall, option 2 accurately describes the diverse chemical composition of plant growth regulators,
