The specific enzyme/(s) of the glyoxylate cycle is/are
Answer: C
Correct answer: both (a) and (b)
The two enzymes unique to the glyoxylate cycle are isocitrate lyase, which splits isocitrate into succinate and glyoxylate, and malate synthase, which joins glyoxylate to a second acetyl-CoA. Between them they bypass the two decarboxylation steps of the TCA cycle, which is what conserves the carbon.
