    Enzymes are essential as bio-catalysts. They function well in

    A)  aqueous medium, temp\[\simeq 30-35{}^\circ C;pH\simeq 7\]

    B)  organic medium (solvent)

    C)  aqueous medium in extreme pH conditions

    D)  none of them

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    : Most biochemical reactions in cells occur in aqueous solutions at pH around 7.0, at physiological temperatures\[(37{}^\circ C)\]and at atmospheric pressure. Under these conditions of temperature and pH etc., the biochemical reactions would not occur at appreciable rates in the absence of enzymes.
