Question

Match the organic compounds listed under Column-I with the explanation given under Column-II. Choose the appropriate option from the given choices.

Column-I	Column-II
A. Phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP)	p. 6-carbon compound
B. Ribulose biphosphate (RuBP)	q. 2-carbon compound
C. Oxaloacetic acid (OAA)	r. 4-carbon compound
D. Acetyl co-enzyme-A	s. 5-carbon compound
	t. 3-carbon compound

• A. A- r, B- s, C- t, D- p
• B. A- q, B- r, C- s, D- t
• C. A- t, B- s, C- r, D- q
• D. A- t, B- p, C- q, D- r

Answer 1

The correct option is C A- t, B- s, C- r, D- q

The chemical formula of PEP is C${}_3$H${}_5$O${}_6$P.

The chemical formula of Ribulose biphosphate is C${}_5$H${}_{12}$O${}_{11}$P${}_2$.

The chemical formula for OAA is C${}_4$H${}_4$O${}_5$.

The chemical formula for Acetyl CoA is C${}_{23}$H${}_{38}$N${}_7$O$17$P${}_3$S.

So, the correct answer is option C.
