Solution

The correct option is A Hexokinase
Hexokinase which catalyzes the entry of free glucose into the glycolytic pathway is a regulatory enzyme. Hexokinase is allosterically inhibited by its products. Mammals have several forms of hexokinase, all of which catalyze the conversion of glucose into glucose-6-phosphate.
