The element that behaves most like Magnesium (Mg) is **Sr (Strontium)**.
Magnesium and Strontium are both in Group 2 of the periodic table, which means they are both alkaline earth metals. They share similar chemical properties due to their placement in the same group, while the other options (S, Sn, Si) are from different groups with different properties.
