Correct answer: A. Non proteineous
- A. Non proteineous
- B. Proteineous
- C. sugars
- D. lipids
Explanation
Coenzymes are small, non-protein organic molecules that assist enzyme action, often by carrying electrons or chemical groups during a reaction. A student may choose proteins because enzymes themselves are usually proteins, but a coenzyme is the non-protein helper component.

About Enzymes as Biocatalysts
Enzymes are protein or RNA biocatalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, and their active sites bind specific substrates. The topic covers the lock and key and induced fit models, effects of temperature, pH and substrate concentration, cofactors, enzyme specificity, and competitive versus non-competitive inhibition.
