Solution

Dear student.

A normal plant produces sugar by the process of photosynthesis and does not need any external supply of sugar. Providing extra sugar will cause ionic and osmotic imbalance, as a result of which transport of minerals and nutrients will get impaired, this might wilt the plant.
