Direction for: In each of the following questions a statement of Assertion is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason just below it. Of the statements mark the correct answer as
Assertion A coenzymes of metal ions that is very tightly bound to enzyme protein is called prosthetic group. Reason A complete, catalytically active enzyme together with its bound prosthetic group is called apoenzyme.A) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
B) If both Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not the correct explanations of Assertion.
C) If Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
D) If both Assertion and Reason are false.
Correct Answer: C
