Solution

The correct option is C Vitamine B $_{2}$
Some enzymes require no chemical groups other than their amino acid residues for activity. Others require an additional chemical component called as cofactor. The cofactor can be either one or more inorganic ions such as ferrous, divalent magnesium or divalent manganese and zinc ions or a complex organic or metallo-organic molecule called as coenzyme. For example - FAD or flavin adenine dinucleotide which transfers electrons in biochemical reactions and is derived from riboflavin or vitamin B $_{2}$ .
So, the correct answer is option D.
