Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The coenzyme that is produced by the body from riboflavin is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins. They are the substance required in small amounts for the normal functioning of the body that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts. They are non-proteins molecules which help enzymes for catalyzing the reaction.
(b)
Interpretation:
The coenzyme that is produced by the body from pantothenic acid is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins. They are the substance required in small amounts for the normal functioning of the body that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts. They are non-proteins molecules which help enzymes for catalyzing the reaction.
(c)
Interpretation:
The coenzyme that is produced by the body from nicotinamide is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Coenzymes are derived from Vitamins. They are the substance required in small amounts for the normal functioning of the body that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts. They are non-proteins molecules which help enzymes for catalyzing the reaction.
