Question:

Which of the following is not correctly matched for enzymatic reactions?

Show Hint

Learn specific enzyme-substrate pairs: Invertase breaks down sucrose, diastase for starch, trypsin for proteins, and maltase for maltose.
Updated On: May 15, 2025
  • Proteins → Amino acids : Trypsin
  • Starch → Maltose : Diastase
  • Sucrose → Glucose and Fructose : Zymase
  • Maltose → Glucose : Maltase

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Zymase is a complex of enzymes that catalyzes the fermentation of sugars, not directly responsible for hydrolysis of sucrose. The correct enzyme for sucrose hydrolysis is invertase, not zymase. Hence, the given match is incorrect.
