Solution

The correct option is A Holoenzyme = Apoenzyme + Coenzyme
Holoenzyme is made up of two parts. It consists of a protein part called apoenzyme and a non-protein part called the cofactor. Cofactor can be of three kinds - prosthetic groups, coenzymes and metal ions. So, coenzyme with apoenzyme forms holoenzyme.
