JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 10. Biomolecules
Which one of the following statements is not true about enzymes ?
- A Enzymes work as catalysts by lowering the activation energy of a biochemical reation.
- B The action of enzymes is temperature and \(\mathrm{pH}\) specific.
- C Almost all enzymes of proteins.
- D Enzymes are non-specific for a reaction and substrate.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Enzymes are non-specific for a reaction and substrate.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Enzymes are highly specific both in the reactions that they catalyzed and in their choice of reactions, which are called substrates.
