Match List I with List II. List I (Enzyme) List II (Conversion) (A) Invertase (I) Starch into maltose (B) Zymase (II) Maltose into glucose (C) Diastase (III) Glucose into ethanol (D) Maltase (IV) Sucrose into glucose and fructose Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
- B(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
- C(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
- D(A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
Correct answer
B. (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
Step-by-step solution
Invertase catalyses the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose. Zymase converts glucose into ethyl alcohol (ethanol) and carbon dioxide. Diastase converts starch into maltose. Maltase converts maltose into glucose. Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II). Answer: (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
