Given below are the two statements. Statements - I: According to international code of enzyme nomenclature, the first part in the name of an enzyme indicates the nature of substrate upon which the enzyme acts. Statements-II: Second part in the name of an enzyme indicates the reaction catalysed by it. In the light of above mentioned statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Step-by-step solution
