Solution

The correct option is C Mg
Magnesium is an essential mineral element. It is one of the macronutrients. It is a part of the ring structure of chlorophyll. A non-ionic magnesium is held in the centre of porphyrin head by nitrogen atoms of pyrrole rings. Mg is also responsible for the maintenance of ribosome structure. Ribosome has two subunits. $M g^{+}$ is required for the binding of these two subunits.
