Question 4
Enzymes are biological catalysts, and most enzymes are proteins (some are RNA, but the options here have protein as a choice, and lipid and carbohydrate are not the main biomolecule type for enzymes).
Enzymes act as catalysts in biological systems, and the primary function of a catalyst is to increase the rate of a chemical reaction (speed up), not slow down or have no effect.
