One ton of soybean containing 18% oil, 35% protein, 27.1% carbohydrates, 9.4% of fibre and ash, and 10.5% moisture is crushed and pressed. The residual oil content in the pressed cake is 6%. Assuming that there is no loss of protein and water with oil, the amount of oil (kg) obtained from the crusher is
Explanation
This outcome reflects enzyme kinetics, where substrate binding and catalytic efficiency determine reaction rates. Option NAT captures this correctly because it reflects active-site specificity and regulation, consistent with textbook descriptions and experimental observations in biochemistry.
