Determine the element from the following description. (I) Activate enzyme of photosynthesis and respiration (II) Involved in the synthesis of DNA and RNA (III) Help to maintain structure of ribosome

Options

  1. ACa
  2. BMg
  3. CS
  4. DFe

Correct answer

B. Mg

Step-by-step solution

Magnesium is one of the macronutrient significant for plant growth and development. Magnesium activates the enzymes RubisCO and PEP carboxylase which are important in photosynthesis and respiration process. It is a constituent of the green pigment chlorophyll and actively involved in making DNA and RNA. It is also required to maintain the integrity of ribosome.
