Correct option is (d) Solubility of an enzyme

Explanation: The equation, log⁡S=Kintercept-Ksalt T represents the solubility of an enzyme where

S = Enzyme solubility

Kintercept = Intercept constant

Ksalt = Salting out constant

T = Ionic strength which is proportional to concentration of precipitating salt

The above equation may also provide with the minimum salt concentration necessary before the enzymes start precipitating.
