Plants need phosphorus for
A
DNA and phospholipid production
B
protein production
C
carbohydrate production
D
keep their membranes fluid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Essential Role of Phosphorus in Plants Phosphorus is a vital component of DNA, the genetic “memory unit” of all living things. It is also a component of RNA, the compound that reads the DNA genetic code to build proteins and other compounds essential for plant structure, seed yield and genetic transfer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Phosphorus is a major element essential for many biological processes, for instance for DNA synthesis, ATP synthesis, membrane synthesis, and protein phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for living organisms. It’s a key part of nucleic acids, like DNAstart text, D, N, A, end text and of the phospholipids that form our cell membranes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Phosphorus plays a major role in the structural framework of DNA and RNA. Living cells use phosphate to transport cellular energy with adenosine triphosphate (ATP), necessary for every cellular process that uses energy.
