How many pyruvate molecules are formed by the glycolysis process of two molecules of glucose?

• One

• Two

• Four

• Six

What is the primary role of enzymes inside of living cells? 

• organizing the translation of proteins
• allowing cells to be motile
• absorbing ultraviolet rays
• speeding up chemical reactions 

Based on the role of enzymes in the cell, it can also be classified as

• inhibitors

• catalysts

• hormones

• vitamins

Enzymes are able to speed up chemical reactions because they

• increase the temperature inside the cell

• reduce the friction between the reactants

• make the raw materials more chemically reactive

• lower the activation energy of the reaction
