Match the following: (a) Inhibitor of catalytic activity (i) Ricin (b) Possess peptide bonds (ii) Malonate (c)

Question

Match the following: (a) Inhibitor of catalytic activity (i) Ricin (b) Possess peptide bonds (ii) Malonate (c) Cell wall material in fungi (iii) Chitin (d) Secondary metabolite (iv) Collagen. Choose the correct option from the following: (1) (a)-(ii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(iii), (d)-(i) (2) (a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii) (3) (a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii) (4) (a)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (c)-(i), (d)-(iv)

Accepted Answer

Option (1) is the correct Answer because Malonate is the competitive inhibitor of catalytic activity of succinic dehydrogenase, so (a) matches with (ii) in column II. Collagen is proteinaceous in nature and possesses peptide bonds, so (b) matches with (iv) in column II. Chitin is a homopolymer present in the cell wall of fungi and exoskeleton of arthropods, so (c) matches with (iii) in column II. Abrin and Ricin are toxins, secondary metabolites, so (d) in column I matches with (i) in column II.
