The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Statement (A) is correct because enzymes function as biocatalysts, accelerating biochemical reactions.

Statement (B) is incorrect because enzymes are specific in their action and typically catalyze only particular types of reactions.

Statement (C) is correct as most enzymes are indeed globular proteins.

Statement (D) is incorrect because oxidase enzymes do not catalyze the hydrolysis of maltose into glucose; instead, they are involved in oxidation-reduction reactions.

Thus, the incorrect statements are (B) and (D).
