Mark the mismatched pair.

A

Cellulose : Unbranched polymer with `beta`,1-4 glycosidic linkage

B

Cellophone : Cellulose xanthate

C

Carboxypetidase : Exopeptidase, `Mg^(2+)` acts as a co-factor

D

Aminopeptidase : Exopeptidase, cleaves the peptide bond at N-terminal end

The correct Answer is:
To identify the mismatched pair in the given options, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Cellulose - **Statement**: Cellulose is an unbranched polymer with beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage. - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Cellulose is indeed a linear polymer made up of glucose units linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic bonds. ### Step 2: Analyze Cellophane - **Statement**: Cellophane is cellulose xanthate. - **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. Cellophane is derived from cellulose xanthate, which is used in the production of rayon. ### Step 3: Analyze Carboxypeptidase - **Statement**: Carboxypeptidase acts on the C-terminal of peptide chains. - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Carboxypeptidase is an enzyme that cleaves amino acids from the C-terminal end of a peptide. ### Step 4: Analyze Aminopeptidase - **Statement**: Aminopeptidase acts on the N-terminal of peptide chains. - **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. Aminopeptidase removes amino acids from the N-terminal end of a peptide. ### Step 5: Identify the Mismatch - **Final Analysis**: All statements regarding cellulose, cellophane, carboxypeptidase, and aminopeptidase are correct. However, the mention of magnesium ions in relation to carboxypeptidase is incorrect, as carboxypeptidase typically requires zinc ions as a cofactor, not magnesium ions. ### Conclusion The mismatched pair is the one that incorrectly states the cofactor for carboxypeptidase. ### Mismatched Pair: - **Carboxypeptidase**: It should mention zinc ions instead of magnesium ions. ---
