Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{R} \quad \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{S} \quad \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{P} \quad \mathrm{D}=\mathrm{Q}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Oxidoreductases are enzymes that catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions. In the context of metabolic pathways like glycolysis, enzymes such as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase act as oxidoreductases. Thus, A matches with R. Phosphodiester bonds are the covalent linkages…
