Question

if a chemical reaction catalyzed by an enzyme is being carried out, and there is a sudden, drastic decrease in temperature, what is most likely to happen next?

Answer 1

Enzyme activity will decrease, and the reaction will proceed very slowly, or possibly not at all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The reaction will stop.

Explanation:

Like other reactions, the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction slows down as the temperature decreases.

If the temperature decease is drastic and sudden, the reaction will appear to have stopped.
