Answer»

The correct option is (c) Adsorption

The best I can EXPLAIN: ATTACHMENT of enzymes to stationary SOLIDS by weak physical forces such as VANDER WAALS forces or dispersion forces. Active site is normally unaffected and nearly full activity is observed. Desorption of enzymes is a common problem.
