If there are ten different intermediate products produced in stages leading to a molecule in a cell,we can expect that there
A)is one enzyme that carries this process through each of the ten stages to the end product.
B)is one enzyme for degradation and another enzyme for synthesis.
C)may not be any enzymes involved if this is a natural cell product.
D)are about ten enzymes,at least one responsible for each step in the metabolic pathway.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since there are ten different intermediate products, it is likely that there are ten enzymes involved in the metabolic pathway, with at least one enzyme responsible for each step in the process. This pathway is known as a metabolic pathway, where enzymes catalyze each reaction to ensure that the necessary product is produced. Therefore, choice D is the best answer.
