4 Which statement best describes the graph shown?
1 answer:
Graph attached
Answer:
b. Less energy is needed to start reaction B.
Explanation:
The graph shows two different reactions and the energy required over time
a. More energy is released by the original reaction. - this is false, more energy is required for the original reaction to proceed
b. Less energy is needed to start reaction B. - this is true, the peak of the curve is lower showing less energy is required
c. The original reaction is catalyzed. - this is false, likely reaction B is catalyzed
d. Reaction B occurs at a slower rate.- false, they occur at the same rate.

Answer: b. reaction 3
Explanation: When an enzyme is present in a reaction acts as a catalyst, increasing velocity of reaction and decreasing the activation energy, when not present an enzyme the reaction velocity is very low and implies high activation energy, being unfavorable to the system
