The active sites of all enzyme are formed by:
Correct answer: A. R-groups of amino acids
- A. R-groups of amino acids
- B. NH2 groups of amino acids
- C. -COOH groups of amino acids
- D. Exposed disulphide bonds
Explanation
The R group, also known as the side chain, is the part of an amino acid that determines its properties. The R groups of amino acids can be very different from each other, and they give enzymes their specificity for different substrates.

About Growth and Development
Embryonic development covers fertilization, cleavage, formation of the blastula and gastrula, germ layers, organ formation and differentiation. Regeneration describes the replacement of lost tissues or body parts, whereas ageing involves gradual cellular and physiological changes linked to reduced repair, altered metabolism and declining organ function.
