Biomolecules

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: Low temperature preserves the enzyme in a temporarily inactive state, whereas high temperature destroys enzymatic activity because proteins are denatured by heat.

Statement II: When the inhibitor closely resembles the substrate in its molecular structure and inhibits the activity of the enzyme, it is known as a competitive inhibitor.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A.Both Statement I and Statement II are true.✓
  2. B.Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
  3. C.Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
  4. D.Statement I is false but Statement II is true.

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
