Which statement summarizes the relationship between DNA, proteins, and amino acids? The DNA molecule is a protein formed by amino acids that are linked together by peptide bonds.
The type of protein that composes DNA codes for the twenty different amino acids.
The sequence of amino acids in DNA determines the type of protein formed during protein synthesis.
The sequence of nucleotides in DNA codes for specific amino acids which bond to form proteins.

answer; /// i believe that the correct answer is (50%);

i am positive it is c. condensing but i may be wrong

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.
