Which of the following statements is true?
A) Biologically important organic molecules never exhibit enantiomerism.
B) Very few biologically important organic molecules exhibit enantiomerism.
C) The vast majority of biologically important organic molecules exhibit enantiomerism.
D) All biologically important organic molecules exhibit enantiomerism.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enantiomers are molecules that are mirror images of each other and can have different biological activities. Many biologically important molecules, such as amino acids, sugars, and neurotransmitters are chiral and exist as enantiomers. Therefore, the vast majority of biologically important organic molecules exhibit enantiomerism.
