The control and regulation of biological processes involve some enzymes. They are known as

  • A.inhibitors
  • B.regulators
  • C.allosteric enzymes
  • D.activators

Answer: C

Correct answer: allosteric enzymes

Allosteric enzymes are the control points of metabolism. Because a modulator binding at a regulatory site can change the activity of the catalytic site, such an enzyme responds to signals other than its own substrate - which is what lets a pathway be regulated by conditions elsewhere in the cell.
