Rationale for change

Previously was impossible to dteermine if cloze 3 referred to DOPA or tyrosine, as tyrosinase catalyzes both steps, and DOPA -> melanin has many intermediate steps in between before melanin is finished.

Text
{{c3::Dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA)}} may be converted to {{c1::melanin}} via the enzyme {{c2::tyrosinase}}
