6. In virtually all types of tissue in every animal species, dioxin induces the production of enzymes that are the organism's trying to metabolize, or render harmless. the chemical that is irritating it.

(A)              trying to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical that is irritating it

(B)              trying that it metabolize, or render harmless, the . chemical irritant

(C)              attempt to try to metabolize, or render harmless, such a chemical irritant

(D)             attempt to try and metabolize, or render harm­less, the chemical irritating it

(E)attempt to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical irritant

In B, trying that it metabolize is ungrammatical. The noun attempt could follow organism's; also, it would parallel the noun enzymes,

我怎么感觉attempt应该是和production of enzymes中的production相对应啊？

In virtually all types of tissue in every animal species, dioxin induces the production of enzymes that are the organism's attempt to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical irritant

其实单从意思上来说不好区别酶是企图还是酶的产生是企图。

主要看后面两个修饰成分render harmless, the chemical irritant 只能是修饰酶而不是酶的产生。

翻译后半句应该是“二氧(杂)芑促使酶的产生，这个酶是有机体用来产生代谢变化，或产生无害物，它是一种化学刺激物”。

以上为个人的理解，希望高人指点。
