Solution
The correct option is D Phosphorus
Phosphorus plays a role in energy metabolism. It is actively involved in protein synthesis, photosynthesis, respiration and other metabolic processes. It also acts as an activator of some gene enzymes. Its deficiency causes:1. disruption of general metabolism particularly at the level of energy generation. 2. Abnormalities in shape and size of chloroplasts.3. Yellowing and drying of lower leaves.4. It promotes leaf fall and delays flowering.Thus, the correct answer is option D.
