BIO NMDCAT Factors that Affect the Rate of Enzyme Reactions
nmdcat.online July 11, 2026

Regarding enzyme activity, reversible loss of catalytic efficiency is most commonly associated with

A. Low temperature exposure
B. Very high temperature exposure
C. Extreme acidic conditions causing denaturation
D. Hydrolysis of peptide bonds

📝 Explanation

Low temperatures slow molecular motion without permanently altering enzyme structure. Normal activity usually returns when the temperature is restored to the optimum value.
