Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a) We know that all biological reactions are catalysed by special catalysts called enxyme, thus enzymes are defined as biological proteins. We also know that enzymes are small organic molecules which are weakly held to the protein and can be easily seperated by dialysis. Therefore chemically all enzymes are globular proteins.
