Magnesium plays a vital role in the function and structure of the body.
The adult human body consist of 25 grams of magnesium i.e. 0.25 % of the human body composition approximately.
Therefore, for a 60 kg adult, then the amount of magnesium in their body would be
[tex]0.25\times \frac{60 kg}{100}[/tex]
= 0.15 kg
Convert kg to g:
1 kg = 1000 g
So, 0.15 kg = [tex]0.15 \times 1000[/tex] = 150 grams
Thus, amount of magnesium in 60 kg adult is equal to 150 grams
