D) Both a and c

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enzymes increase the rate of reactions by lowering the activation energy, without being consumed in reactions. They do not alter the chemical equilibrium between reactants and products, meaning the ratio of reactants to products remains the same. Therefore, option D (both a and c) is correct.
