Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -R : The enzyme nitrogenase is highly sensitive to the molecular oxygen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Nitrogenase is the key enzyme for biological nitrogen fixation. Nitrogenase converts nitrogen to ammonia. It is present in some prokaryotes. The reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia by living organisms is called biological nitrogen fixation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The enzyme nitrogenase is a Mo-Fe protein and catalyses the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3).
Detailed explanation-4: -Solution: The enzyme nitrogenase is highly sensitive to the molecular oxygen; it requires anaerobic conditions.
