Question

which graph shows the effects of temperature on the activity of an enzyme?

• 1 point

Explanation:

Enzymes have an optimal temperature range. At very low temperatures, enzyme activity is low due to reduced molecular motion. As temperature increases, enzyme activity increases until the optimal temperature is reached. Beyond the optimal temperature, enzyme activity decreases as the enzyme denatures (loses its shape). This results in a bell - shaped curve for enzyme activity vs. temperature.

Answer:

B. Graph of Enzyme Activity vs. Temperature (the one with a bell - shaped curve)
