Answer 1

Hint: Nutrient deficiencies cause interminable ailment in plants. At the point when supplements are missing, significant molecules like chlorophyll, DNA, RNA, proteins, and lipids can't be made. Flowering potted plants may be dwarfed, create chlorosis or necrosis, have less blossoms, and in any case be unattractive.

Complete Answer:
- Probably the most widely recognized abiotic diseases in plants are because of healthful uneven characters coming about because of uses of deficient or unreasonable measures of macronutrients or micronutrients.
- Plants need more prominent amounts of macronutrients than micronutrients, however probably the indications of nutrient imbalance are brought about by insufficiencies of micronutrients.
- In the insufficient amount of Zn, Leaves of all ages become uniformly chlorotic and terminal leaves are triangular, stunted, and deformed.
- In the shortage of Mo, Plants may be stunted, leaves are small and chlorotic, and leaf margins may become scorched. Leaves tend to curl upward.
- Also if we are talking about the less quantity of Cl, chlorotic leaves, leaf spots, brown edges, restricted and highly branched root system, as well as wilting of leaves at margins and leaf mottling, may occur.
- In case of Ni shortage, stunted growth, chlorosis, interveinal chlorosis, purplish-red coloring and necrosis may cause.

So, the correct answer is option 1.

Note: Deficiency means lack or shortage. So Plants can also suffer deficiencies where the developing conditions are poor and the plants can't take up supplements present in the soil.
