The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Enzymes**: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are primarily made up of proteins and are highly specific in their action. 2. **Role of Enzyme Activators**: Enzyme activators are substances that can bind to enzymes and enhance their activity. These activators can increase the efficiency of the enzyme, allowing it to catalyze reactions more effectively. 3. **Coenzymes**: Coenzymes are a specific type of enzyme activator. They are organic molecules that assist enzymes in their catalytic activity. For example, vitamins often serve as coenzymes. 4. **Conclusion**: Since enzyme activators, including coenzymes, do indeed increase the activity of enzymes, the statement in the question is true. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the answer to the question is True. ---
