The correct option is 'c'

Explanation:

Coenzyme are small molecules that are inactive but when it binds with the protein molecule or called the apoenzyme,it form the active enzyme i.e Holoenzyme.

The function of coenzyme is to enhance the activity of enzyme.

They are not capable of catalyze the reaction ut helps the enzyme to perform the recation by activating it.

Coenzymes are non protein and organic molecule.

Several water soluble vitamins like Vitamin B1,B2 and B6 acts as a coenzyme as they have the properties of coenzyme.

Coenzyme

Explanation:

d. An organic molecule closely associated with enzymes defines a coenzyme

Coenzymes are small molecules,they cannot by themselves catalyze a reaction but they can help enzymes to do so or we can say coenzymes are organic nonprotein molecules that bind with the protein molecule (apoenzyme) to form the active enzyme (holoenzyme)Coenzyme enhances the action of an enzyme (an enzyme is a protein that functions as a catalyst to mediate and speed a chemical reaction)A number of the water-soluble vitamins such as B1, B2 and B6 serve as coenzymes

for example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems, such as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.

The answer would be c, white eyes are homozygous recessive. in the early 1900s, morgan conducted several experiments with vinegar flies (drosophila). one sample revealed an anomaly: a white-eyed, single male fly. he attempted to breed this fly with the typical red-eyed females. the offspring were all red-eyed. using flies from this new generation (brother-sister pairs) produced some red-eyed and a few white-eyed flies. the white-eyed were all male. in later experiments, he was able to produce white-eyed females. this proved that white eyes are not lethal to either sex (ruling out a and b). since the percentage of white eyes to red eyes is so low, white eyes are not a dominant trait. it would be a recessive trait.
