Caden Adkins · Answer 1

The correct answer is the activation energy for the reaction is lowered.

Explanation:

Enzymes are homogenous, thermolabile, biological catalyst which speed the rate of a reaction but itself remains unchanged throughout the reaction.

Enzyme basically reduces the energy barrier also called activation energy and interact with the transition state of the reaction in a complementary fashion.

Enzymes does not have any effect in the equilibrium of the reaction.
