Allosteric enzymes consist of multiple?
Correct answer: B. Polypeptide chains
- A. Inhibitors
- B. Polypeptide chains
- C. Active sites
- D. Temperature
Explanation
Important property of allosteric enzymes is that it also contains many polypeptide chains with multiple active and allosteric sites. Allosteric enzymes typically comprise multiple protein subunits.

About Enzymes
Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, and their specificity is explained by the lock and key and induced fit models. Work includes the effects of temperature, pH and substrate concentration on reaction rate, plus competitive and non-competitive inhibition and how these differ.
