Enzymes are biocatalysts. They catalyse biochemical reaction. In general they reduce activation energy of reactions. Many physico-chemical processes are enzyme mediated. Some examples of enzyme mediated reactions are given below. Tick the wrong entry

A

Dissolving `CO_(2)` in water

B

Unwinding the two strands of DNA

C

Hydrolysis of sucrose

D

Formation of a peptide bond

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Dissolving `CO_(2)` in water does not require any enzyme. `CO_(2)` Has higher solubility in water than `O_(2)` Solubility of `CO_2` in water can be increased with a decrease in temperature.
