Correct answer: D. Accept one of the cleavage products
- A. Activate the substrate
- B. Increase the active sites of apoenzyme
- C. Enhance the specificity of apoenzyme
- D. Accept one of the cleavage products
Explanation
Coenzymes act as carriers of chemical groups or electrons during enzyme reactions, often accepting a product or reaction fragment and transferring it elsewhere. They do not increase the number of active sites or primarily determine substrate specificity.
