Explanation / Answer

Answer 1: The pathway that represents the synthesis of compound D is option (i)

Precursor------>B------>C------>D

Precursor---->A------>D

Answer 2: The statements which help in determining the shape and order of the pathway are: option (i) and option (iii).

(i) Mutant1 synthesizes compound D in the presence of B and C but not A.

(iii) Mutant 3 synthesizes compound D in the presence of A but not B or C.
