Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If enzyme 2 is inactive, then the pathway would be blocked after intermediate A. This means that only products B and D would be produced since they are downstream of A in the pathway. The other products (C, F, and G) require functions of enzymes 2 and/or 3, so they would not be produced if enzyme 2 is inactive.
