Question

the effect of temperature on the relative rate of action of an enzyme is represented in the graph below. the optimum temperature for the action of this enzyme is approximately a. 15°c b. 22°c c. 50°c d. 37°c

Explanation:

Enzymes have an optimal temperature at which their activity is highest. This is the peak of the curve on the graph. Looking at the options, we check which temperature corresponds to the peak.

Answer:

d. \(37^{\circ}C\)
