Which of the following statements best describes the likely effect of the channel on the process carried out by tryptophan synthase

The tryptophan synthase enzyme catalyzes the synthesis of tryptophan. This enzyme is found in all kingdoms except animals.

Tryptophan synthase has a hydrophobic channel that facilitates the passage of an intermediate from one enzyme to the other during the biosynthesis of tryptophan, which makes faster the metabolic process.
