1. (i)>(iii)>(ii)

Oxidized form of enzyme catalase (structure A); prepared by the reaction of [Fe(P)]+ (P=porphyrin) with H2O2 has a green colour because of
1. Oxidation state of iron changed from FeIII to FeIV.
2. Porphyrin ring is oxidized by one electron.
3. transition appears in the visible region
4. FeIV is coordinated with anionic tyrosinate ligand in axial position.
The cooperative binding of O2 in hemogoblin is due to
1. a decrease in size of iron followed by changes in the protein conformation
2. an increase in size of iron followed by changes in the protein conformation
3. a decrease in size of iron that is NOT accompanied by the protein conformational changes
4. an increase in size of iron that is NOT accompanied by the protein conformational changes
