Q.
The following reaction is catalysed by which of the enzyme? $NADH + H^{+} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2} \longrightarrow NAD^{+} + H_{2}O$
A) Hydrolases
B) Cytochrome oxidases
C) Transferases
D) Lyases
Explanation
$NADH + H^{+} + 1/2O_{2}\underset{oxidase}{\overset{Cytochrome}{\rightarrow}}NAD^{2} + H_{2}O$ Cytochrome oxidases catalyses the transfer of hydrogen to oxygen, forming water in the last reaction of electron transport system
