Question:
The below reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme:
$CO_{2}$ + $H_{2}$O → $H_{2}CO_{3}$
The below reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme:
$CO_{2}$ + $H_{2}$O → $H_{2}CO_{3}$
$CO_{2}$ + $H_{2}$O → $H_{2}CO_{3}$
Show Hint
Carbonic anhydrase is vital for fast $CO_{2}$ transport in respiration and excretion.

- Enolase
- Aconitase
- Fumarase
- Carbonic anhydrase
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Carbonic anhydrase catalyzes the reversible reaction between carbon dioxide and water to form carbonic acid \(H_{2}CO_{3}\), which is crucial for maintaining pH balance and $CO_{2}$ transport in the blood.
