Answer: option D.

Explanation:

Enzyme are protein that act as catalyst in living organisms thereby regulating the rate of chemical reaction without itself being changed in the process.

Enzymes lowers the activation energy of a reaction because it not possible for it to affect the overall enthalpy of a reaction and in doing this they increase the rate of a reaction, helping it to occur faster.
