Question

Find out the wrongly matched pair.

B VENKAT · Accepted Answer

## CORE INFORMATION
✓ **Answer**: D
## CONCEPT FRAMEWORK
**Primary Concept**: Classification of biomolecules and their functions
**Related Topics**: Metabolism, Biochemistry, Carbohydrates, Proteins, Lipids, Nucleic Acids
**Prerequisites**: Basic understanding of biomolecules and their classification.
## SOLUTION PATHWAY
**Given Information**:
    The question presents four pairs, each relating a type of biomolecule to its classification or example.
    The task is to identify the incorrectly matched pair.
**Method & Steps**:
1. Analyze each pair individually based on understanding of biomolecule classifications.
    Reasoning: We must verify if the relationship between the biomolecule and its class is correct.
2. Evaluate Option A: Primary metabolite - Ribose
        Working: Ribose is a simple sugar used in RNA and is a primary metabolite necessary for basic cellular function. This is a correct match.
3. Evaluate Option B: Secondary metabolite - Anthocyanin
        Working: Anthocyanin is a pigment produced by plants and is considered a secondary metabolite not directly involved in growth and development. This is a correct match.
4. Evaluate Option C: Protein - Insulin
        Working: Insulin is a protein hormone involved in glucose regulation. This is a correct match.
5. Evaluate Option D: Cellulose - Heteropolymer
        Working: Cellulose is a polysaccharide made only of glucose monomers, making it a homopolymer, not a heteropolymer. This is an incorrect match.
**Final step**:
    Result: Option D is the wrongly matched pair.
    Verification: The other options are all correct matches based on biochemical classifications.
 ## OPTION ANALYSIS
[A] :x: Correct match. Ribose is a primary metabolite.
[B] :x: Correct match. Anthocyanin is a secondary metabolite.
[C] :x: Correct match. Insulin is a protein.
[D] ✓: Incorrect match. Cellulose is a homopolymer, not a heteropolymer.
 ## LEARNING AIDS
**Common Mistakes**:
1. Confusing primary and secondary metabolites: Primary metabolites are directly involved in growth and development, while secondary metabolites are not. 
2. Misidentifying homopolymers and heteropolymers: Homopolymers consist of only one type of monomer, while heteropolymers consist of multiple monomer types.
**Quick Tips**:
1. Remember common examples of primary (e.g., sugars, amino acids) and secondary (e.g., pigments, alkaloids) metabolites.
2. Recall that cellulose is made of only glucose, making it a homopolymer, and that heteropolymers are more complex.
