These are the kind of questions you pray against 😂😂 because the question get 2 answers ( calcium and phosphorus ) and you can't know what the examiner wants

calcium is the most appropriate
when they are talking about phosphorus they always include the state of its colour (reddish in colour) but since it wasn't added the most appropriate is
calcium

its phosporous B.

when it comes to poor root development

The answer is A

Sulfur (S)
Sulfur (S) or Flowers of Sulfur as it is known also occur
naturally in organic soil. Most chemical and organic fertilizer
also contains Sulfur which makes Sulfur deficiency very rare.
If Sulfur deficiency does occur, it shows up in the form of
stunted growth and yellow foliage, much the same as
nitrogen deficiency as Sulfur forms part of plant protein and
plays a role in the formation of chlorophyll.
