Solution
The correct option is
B
RuBisCO of plants and collagen of animals
The most abundant protein in the world is RuBisCO. This is an enzyme that catalyzes the first step in carbon fixation.
RuBisCO is found in plants, algae, cyanobacteria, and certain other bacteria.
Carbon fixation is the main chemical reaction responsible for inorganic carbon used for the formation of food.
The most abundant protein in the human body is collagen.
It is the common protein in other mammals. Collagen forms connective tissue.
It is found primarily in fibrous tissue, such as tendons, ligaments, and skin.
It is a component of muscle, cartilage, bone, blood vessels, the cornea of the eye, intervertebral discs and the intestinal tract.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
