How do enzymes help to carry out biochemical reactions?
A. By decreasing the energy of the reactants
B. By increasing the activation energy of the reaction
C. By decreasing the activation energy of the reaction
D. By increasing the energy of the products of the reaction
E. By decreasing the energy of the products of the reaction


Sagot :

The answer is C. Enzymes lower activation energy, allowing the reaction to happen more quickly, which is why they are called catalysts.

Answer:

Enzymes help to carry out biochemical reactions C). By decreasing the activation energy of the reaction

Explanation:

Enzyme catalysis An enzyme catalyzes a biochemical reaction by binding a substrate at the active site. After the reaction has proceeded, the products are released and the enzyme can catalyze further reactions.
