Answer:

The correct answer is option C, that is, increase the concentration of the enzyme.

Explanation:

Biological molecules or proteins that enhance the rate of a chemical reaction taking place within the cell are known as enzymes. These proteins play an essential part in the proper functioning of the body, as they help in the process of metabolism and digestion.  

In the given case, if the enzyme gets saturated with the substrate, and is working at optimum pH and temperature, then to enhance the rate of the reaction the only thing that can be done is to enhance the concentration of the enzyme. However, further stimulation of some of the enzymes can be done with the addition of allosteric activators in the reaction, otherwise, enhancing the concentration of the enzyme is the only way.

SVEN [57.7K]
The name of the process that needs energy (adenosine triphosphate, or atp) for  nutrients that were digested to be absorbed through the small intestinal wall into the bloodstream or lymphatic system is called active transport. This process involves the movement of particles in a membrane from a lower concentration to a higher concentration with the aid of an external source like energy or enzymes.

Which statements correctly explain why biological productivity in the tropical ocean is so meager when compared to biological pr
Anni [7]
<span>The answer to this question would be: 
- The permanent thermocline presents a barrier that keeps nutrients in deeper water from mixing with surface waters.
- The sunlight penetrates deep into the tropical ocean, warming the surface waters and creating stratification of water masses.

In tropical lands, the area is getting sunlight all around the year. This will cause the plant to be able to do photosynthesis all around the year too. Sunlight can penetrate the ocean, but the intensity will be much lower in deeper part. The ocean also become warmer but it will become cold in the deeper part too. </span>
