D)They are RNA molecules.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ribozymes, being catalysts, do not change in their chemical makeup during the reaction. They are substrate-specific and enhance the reaction rate by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction. Furthermore, ribozymes are RNA molecules that function as enzymes.
