Question
The incorrect statements regarding enzymes are :(A) Enzymes are biocatalysts.(B) Enzymes are non-specific and can catalyse different kinds of reactions.(C) Most Enzymes are globular proteins.(D) Enzyme - oxidase catalyses the hydrolysis of maltose into glucose.
Solution
The incorrect statements regarding enzymes are:
(B) Enzymes are non-specific and can catalyse different kinds of reactions. This statement is incorrect because enzymes are highly specific. Each enzyme catalyses a specific type of reaction.
(D) Enzyme - oxidase catalyses the hydrolysis of maltose into glucose. This statement is incorrect because the enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of maltose into glucose is maltase, not oxidase. Oxidase is an enzyme that catalyses oxidation-reduction reactions.
