Question

Which amongst the following is an enzyme controlled process?

• A. Combustion
• B. Respiration
• C. Photosynthesis
• D. Both b and c

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both b and c

Photosynthesis is an enzyme regulated anabolic process that involves the formation of glucose in the presence of sunlight.

Respiration is an energy releasing, enzymatically controlled process which involves a stepwise breakdown of food substances inside living cells.

So, both respiration and photosynthesis are enzymatically controlled processes that occur within the living cells. Whereas combustion is the burning of substances in the external environment in the presence of oxygen. It is a non-enzymatic reaction.
