Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Enzymes are what macromolecule?
A
Nucleic Acid
B
Lipid
C
Protein
D
Carbohydrate
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Enzymes are proteins comprised of amino acids linked together in one or more polypeptide chains. This sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain is called the primary structure. This, in turn, determines the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme, including the shape of the active site.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Enzymes are protein macromolecules. Proteins are large biopolymer molecules that are made up of repeating monomer units called amino acids. There are 20 different common amino acids that make up proteins like enzymes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Macromolecules are basically polymers, long chains of molecular sub-units called monomers. Carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids are found as long polymers. Due to their polymeric nature and large size, they are known as macromolecules.
