Solution

The correct option is A Mo
The activator of enzyme nitrogenase is molybdenum. Nitrogenase is essential during nitrogen fixation. It catalyses the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia. Molybdenum also activates another essential enzyme in nitrogen metabolism, nitrate reductase. Molybdenum is a micro nutrient absorbed by plants in the form of molybdate ions.
