Correct answer: A
-
We check each statement one by one.
-
Statement (A): "Enzymes are biocatalysts."
- This is correct.
- Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up biochemical reactions.
-
Statement (B): "Enzymes are non-specific and can catalyse different kinds of reactions."
- This is incorrect.
- Enzymes are generally highly specific in nature. They usually act on a particular substrate or a particular type of reaction.
-
Statement (C): "Most enzymes are globular proteins."
- This is correct.
- In standard biomolecules theory, most enzymes are globular proteins.
-
Statement (D): "Enzyme oxidase catalyses the hydrolysis of maltose into glucose."
- This is incorrect.
- Hydrolysis of maltose into glucose is catalysed by maltase, not oxidase.
- Oxidases are enzymes involved in oxidation reactions, not hydrolysis of maltose.
-
Therefore, the incorrect statements are:
-
Matching with options:
- Option A = and
Hence, the correct answer is:
- Comparison with stored correct answer:
- Stored correct answer = A
- Our derived answer = A
- So, they agree.
