Neutralization of xenobiotics and active endogenous metabolites often occurs via introduction of an oxygen atom into the substrate molecule. What process occurs as the result?

Answer options

1. Deaminization
2. Decarboxylation
3. Phosphorilation
4. Transamination
5. Hydroxylation

Explanation

Neutralization of xenobiotics and active endogenous metabolites often occurs via introduction of an oxygen atom into the substrate molecule. What process occurs as the result?Hydroxylation. Hydroxylation actually means Introduction of Hydroxyl Group –OH, but here this answers closer to answer than other options.
