Enzymes are destroyed, when the_______________?
Correct answer: D. Temperature is very high
- A. Reaction rate is independent of the reactant's concentration
- B. Reactant's concentration is very high
- C. Reactant's concentration is very low
- D. Temperature is very high
Explanation
Enzymes are proteins whose structure is damaged or denatured at excessive temperature, causing loss of catalytic activity. Reactant concentration does not normally destroy the enzyme in this general sense.
