Identify the correct statements regarding enzymes:

  1. A
    Enzymes are specific biological catalysts that can normally function at very high temperature ()
  2. B
    Enzymes are specific biological catalysts that possess well – defined active sites
  3. C
    Enzymes are specific biological catalysts that cannot be poisoned
  4. D
    Enzymes are normally heterogeneous catalysts that are very specific in their action

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Enzymes are protein molecules that act as highly specific biological catalysts. They possess specifically shaped regions called active sites where the substrate binds.Option A is wrong; enzymes denature at high temperatures.Option C is wrong; enzymes can be inhibited/poisoned.Option D is wrong; they are usually homogeneous catalysts.
Correct statement is B.
