It is false about enzymes:
Correct answer: A. All enzymes require co-factors for proper functioning
- A. All enzymes require co-factors for proper functioning
- B. Only small amount of enzymes is required.
- C. They work in vitro as well as in vivo conditions
- D. They lower activation energy
Explanation
Co-factors are non-protein parts that are required for proper functioning of enzyme but some enzymes such as pepsin do not require co-factors.

About Enzymes
Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, and their specificity is explained by the lock and key and induced fit models. Work includes the effects of temperature, pH and substrate concentration on reaction rate, plus competitive and non-competitive inhibition and how these differ.
