Which enzyme is responsible for biological nitrogen fixation ?
Answer: C
Correct answer: Nitrogenase
Nitrogenase reduces atmospheric N2 to ammonia, an energy-expensive reaction requiring around 16 ATP per molecule fixed. The enzyme is irreversibly inactivated by oxygen, which is why nitrogen-fixing cells protect it inside heterocysts or root nodules.
