The right answer is B) There will be less sugar produced.  

During the summer period, it is expected that there is a drought that is to say that the humidity rate of the air is decreased and that the earth will be drier, so there will be an increased water removal by the plant and decreased absorption.

We know that water is a substrate of photosynthesis, its decrease will imply the decrease of the yield of the photosynthesis, and it is for its one will have fewer sugars in the fruits.
