Which statement best describes enzyme function?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. This allows the reaction to happen more easily and quickly. Enzymes can work on specific substrates, but not all substrates, so B is not correct. Enzymes do not chemically alter the reactants and products, but rather facilitate the reaction without being consumed in the process, so C is not correct. Enzymes can also perform anabolic reactions, so A is not correct.
