Solution

The correct option is D Triose phosphate mutase
In glycolysis, the reactions catalyzed by hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and pyruvate kinase are virtually irreversible; hence, these enzymes would be expected to have regulatory as well as catalytic roles.
So the correct answer should be option "Triose phosphate mutase"
