Solution

The correct option is A

Carboxylation


The most abundant protein in the biosphere is RuBisCO (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase). It catalyzes the primary chemical reaction by which inorganic carbon permanently enters the biosphere. It catalyzes the carboxylation of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP).
