Question:
Which of the following enzymatic reaction is not correctly matched with enzyme shown against it in brackets?
Which of the following enzymatic reaction is not correctly matched with enzyme shown against it in brackets?
Show Hint
In enzymatic reactions, always match the enzyme with the substrate it breaks down. Zymase breaks down sugars, while amylase breaks down starches.

- Proteins → Peptides (Pepsin)
- Starch → Maltose (Zymase)
- Sucrose → Glucose and fructose (Invertase)
- Maltose → Glucose (Maltase)
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The enzyme Zymase breaks down sugars such as glucose and fructose, not starch. Therefore, option (2) is incorrect, as starch is broken down by amylase into maltose, not by zymase.
