Biomolecules and Chemistry in Everyday Life 2 Question 9

10. The correct match between Item I and Item II is

Item I Item II
A. Allosteric effect P. Molecule binding to the active site
of enzyme.
B. Competitive
inhibitor
Q. Molecule crucial for
communication in the body.
C. Receptor R. Molecule binding to a site other
than the active site of enzyme.
D. Poison S. Molecule binding to the enzyme
covalently.

(a) $\mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{P}$; $\mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{R}$; $\mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}$; $\mathrm{D} \rightarrow \mathrm{Q}$

(b) $\mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{P}, \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{R} ; \mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{Q} ; \mathrm{D} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}$

(c) $\mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{R} ; \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{P} ; \mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} ; \mathrm{D} \rightarrow \mathrm{Q}$

(d) $\mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{R} ; \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{P}$; $\mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{Q}$; $\mathrm{D} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 10. (d)

Solution:

  1. (A) Molecule binding to a site other than the active site of enzyme is called allosteric effect.

(B) Molecule binding to the active site of enzyme is called competitive inhibitor.

(C) Molecule crucial for communication in the body is called receptor.

(D) Molecule binding to the enzyme covalently is called poison. Thus, the correct match is : A $\rightarrow \mathrm{R}, \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{P}, \mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{Q}, \mathrm{D} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}$
