Question

Archibald Garrod's study of the diseases like the one in question above:

		led to the discovery of inborn errors of metabolism
		led to the "relationship of genes to enzymes" hypothesis
		used studies of family pedigrees
		all of the above

Chemical pathways by which living things function, especially those that provide cellular energy, such as the transformation of energy from food into the energy of ATP. Metabolism also focuses on chemical pathways involving the synthesis of new biomolecules and the elimination of waste.
