Main & most obvious reason - lack or absence of sunlight. Other external factors include not enough carbon dioxide and ambient temperatures that are too hot or too cold.

There could also be other factors such as a genetic disorder in plants that cause a lack of chlorophyll If the soil type is incorrect, or the water content incorrect, normal processes within the organism will not occur
