    The correct matching pairs are:

    1) - B)

    2) - E)

    3) - A)

    4) - F)

    Explanation:

    Transferases (B) : Transeferases is the class of enzyme that catalyzes reactions involving the transfer of certain functional groups. (1)

    Example: Transaminase transfers nitrogenous groups

    Isomerases (E) : Isomerases is the class of enzyme that catalyzes isomerization reactions and intramolecular rearrangements. (2)

    Example: Triosephosphate isomerase interconverts aldoses and ketoses

    Oxidoreductases (A) : Oxidoreductases is a class of enzyme that catalyzes redox reactions (3) which involves the simultaneous transfer of electron.

    Example: Alcohol oxidoreductases acts on the alcohol functional group

    Ligases (F) : Ligases is a class of enzyme that catalyzes reactions involving chemical bond formation between two molecules. (4)

    Example: DNA ligase joins DNA fragments
