The factor influencing process of flowerings is ____
A
Amount of chlorophyll
B
Soil water
C
Soil pH
D
Photoperiod
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -(Njoku, 1958). There are four primary external environmental cues that affect flowering in plants: photoperiod, temperature, irradiance, and stress (fire, water levels). In addition, lack of stress or supra-optimal levels of nutrients or saturating water levels can also impact progression towards flowering.

Detailed explanation-2: -Flowering time can be influenced by various environmental factors such as photoperiod, temperature, availability of water and nutrients in the soil, exogenous chemical compounds, microbes, and pollinator availability.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photoperiodism affects flowering by inducing the shoot to produce floral buds instead of leaves and lateral buds.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photoperiodism is the response to changes in daylength that enables plants to adapt to seasonal changes in their environment. The best studied example of photoperiodism in plants is flowering, but other responses to daylength include bud dormancy and bulb or tuber initiation.
