Answer / dipul kumar biswas
Chlorosis is a yellowing of leaf tissue due to a lack of
chlorophyll. Possible causes of chlorosis include poor
drainage, damaged roots, compacted roots, high alkalinity,
and nutrient deficiencies in the plant
Necrosis is death of body tissue. It occurs when there is
not enough blood to the tissue, whether from injury,
radiation, or chemicals. Necrosis is not reversible.
