Solution

The correct option is B Mo
Molybdenum is absorbed by the plant from the soil in the form of molybdate ions. It is a mobile mineral and required everywhere in the body by plants and more commonly found in roots. It is a component of several enzymes, including nitrogenase and nitrate reductase both of which participate in nitrogen metabolism. Also, it is essential for nitrogen fixation.
So the correct answer is 'Mo'.
