Which one is correct?
| 1. | Inorganic catalysts work efficiently at high temperature and high pressure while enzymes get damaged at high temperature (above 40°C) |
| 2. | Thermophilic organisms living in hot vents and sulphur springs have enzymes that are stable and retain their catalytic power even at high temperature (80 - 90°C) |
| 3. | Ribozymes are nucleic acids behaving like enzyme |
| 4. | All are correct |
