Solution

The correct option is D nitrogen
Because of the nitrogen deficiency following things happens:-
1. Plants growth is stunted and poorly developed(because protein content, cell division, and cell enlargement are decreased)
2. It causes yellowing (chlorosis) of leaves, Older leaves are affected first.
3. Flowering and fruiting are reduced.
4. Protein and starch content is decreased.
5. Prolonged dormancy and early senescence appear.
