Which nutrient mimics nitrogen deficiency

A. Copper

B. Zinc

C. Molybdenum

D. Sulfur

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The deficiency of molybdenum mimics nitrogen deficiency as in the absence of sufficient molybdenum the plants accumulate nitrate in their leaves, but cannot use it to make proteins for normal growth. The plant becomes stunted and the leaves show symptoms of nitrogen deficiency and appear to be pale green or yellowish green in colour.
