Which enzyme is used to catalyze the addition of ammonia, water or carbon dioxide to double bond?

Correct answer: B. Phospho-glyceromutases

  • A. Phospho-transferase
  • B. Phospho-glyceromutases
  • C. Fumarase
  • D. Succinic thiokinase

Explanation

Option A is correct.Phospho-transferase enzymes are used to catalyze the addition of ammonia, water, or carbon dioxide to double bonds. Phospho-transferase enzymes are a type of enzyme that transfers a phosphate group from one molecule to another. In the case of phospho-transferase enzymes that catalyze the addition of ammonia, water, or carbon dioxide to double bonds, the phosphate group is transferred from ATP to the substrate molecule. The substrate molecule is then able to react with ammonia, water, or carbon dioxide to form a new product. Phospho-transferase enzymes are involved in a variety of biological processes, including the biosynthesis of amino acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. They are also involved in the degradation of molecules such as fatty acids and nucleotides.

About Biological Molecules

The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
