Study the given statements -
i. | A dehydration reaction (or condensation reaction) is the process in which water molecules are produced as a polymer is formed from monomers. |
ii. | The four main categories of macromolecules present in living systems are proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. |
iii. | Glucose is the main monosaccharide used by human cells for energy. |
iv. | The building blocks or monomers of nucleic acid molecules are called nucleosides. |

2. ii
3. iii
4. iv
The steps in catalytic cycle of an enzyme action are given in random order
I. The enzyme releases the products. Now enzyme is free to bind another substrate
II. The active sites, now in close proximity of substrate break the bond of substrate and E – P complex forms
III. Binding of substrate induces the enzyme to alter its shape fitting more tightly around the substrate
IV. The substrate binds to the active site of enzyme (i.e., fitting into the active site.
The correct order is
1. I, II, III, IV
2. IV, III, II, I
3. I, III, II, IV
4. I, II, IV, III
Which one of the following biomolecules is correctly characterized?
1. Lecithin – a phosphorylated glyceride found in cell membrane
2. Palmitic acid – an unsaturated fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms
3. Adenylic acid – adenosine with a glucose and phosphate molecule
4. Alanine amino acid – contains an amino group and an acidic group anywhere in the molecule
Prosthetic groups differ from co-enzymes, in which:
1. | they require metal ions for their activity. |
2. | they (prosthetic groups) are tightly bound to apoenzymes. |
3. | their association with apoenzymes is transient. |
4. | they can serve as co-factors in a number of enzyme-catalyzed reactions. |
