Vedclass · Answer

(A) The correct answer is $A$. In $Etiolation$, plants grown in the absence of light exhibit specific morphological changes such as yellowing of leaves due to the lack of chlorophyll synthesis and the elongation of internodes to reach a light source. This process involves the conversion of chlorophyll into protochlorophyll in the dark. The chemical equilibrium can be represented as: $	ext{Chlorophyll} ightleftharpoons 	ext{Protochlorophyll} + 2H$.
