Answer:

The answer is d.Enzymes are used up in the reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Enzymes are never used in the reactions. As their function is to be a catalyst, therefore, they are not involved in any chemical reaction and they don't alter their composition. They do change, sometimes, their shape, in order to help properly with the catalysis, but that doesn't involve any other involvement of them.
