Solution

The correct option is C Calcium
Calcium performs many functions in the body: It is fundamentally responsible for the mineralisation of bone and teeth as well as for the formation of hard tissue. An adequate supply of calcium is important for healthy growth and the smooth functioning of the metabolism. It also plays a major role in blood clotting by activating major coagulating factors.
So, the correct answer is option C.
