Q

What will happen to enzyme rates when things are changed?

A

When there’s restrictions on them they are more slower in their reactions and more faster when they are able to bind well with substrates and move around quickly as well.

A

Inhibition: Hinderance on enzyme reactions and makes them move slower.
Activation: Sparks enzymes reaction and makes them move faster.
