Glucose is converted into glucose 6-phosphate by hexokinase. Glucose 6-phosphate then serves as the substrate for the enzyme phosphoglucose isomerase, which converts this reactant into fructose 6-phosphate. Fructose 6-phosphate serves as the substrate for phosphofructokinase, which converts fructose 6-phosphate into fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. Based on the information provided, this is an example of

A. enzyme inhibition. B. a metabolic pathway. C. allosteric regulation. D. feedback inhibition.
