    The correct answer is option D.

    Explanation:

    Unfavorable weather conditions in the orange groves would lead to a decrease in the supply of oranges. This will lea to an increase in the price of oranges. Since oranges are used as input in making orange juice the cost of producing juice will increase.

    As a result, the supply of orange juice will decrease. This will lead to a leftward shift in the supply curve. This leftward shift in the supply curve will cause the equilibrium price to increase.
