NEETBotanyBiomolecules (B)
Read the following Assertion and Reason and choose the correct option. Assertion: In the absence of enzymes, the reaction rate is very fast. Reason: Enzymes are not included in the metabolic pathways
Options
- ABoth Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of Assertion
- BBoth Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
- CAssertion is true but the Reason is false
- DBoth Assertion and Reason are false
Correct answer
D. Both Assertion and Reason are false
Step-by-step solution
The enzyme accelerate the rate of reaction by about 10 million times. A multistep chemical reaction, when each of the steps is catalysed by the same enzyme complex or different enzymes, is called a metabolic pathway.
