Prosthetic groups differ from co-enzymes in that
1. they require metal ions for their activity.
2. they (prosthetic groups) are tightly bound to apoenzymes.
3. their association with apoenzymes is transient.
4. they can serve as co-factors in a number of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.

In peroxidase and catalase:
1. haem is the prosthetic group and it is a part of the active site of the enzyme.
2. FAD is the prosthetic group and it is a part of the active site of the enzyme.
3. haem is the prosthetic group and is not a part of the active site of the enzyme.
4. NADP is the prosthetic group and it is a part of the active site of the enzyme.
