Answer:

A. Less glucose will be available for energy production

Step-by-step explanation:

Chlorphyll is the green pigmentation in plants that helps them trap sunlight or light energy which will be converted into glucose. The glucose is then converted into energy or ATP.

If chrlorphyll is significantly lost then there will be significantly less light energy captured, which will result in less glucose formed. This means that there will be less glucose to be converted into energy.

Following the pattern of events, there will be less glucose available for energy production.
