  2. 2.

    What happens to the rate of an enzyme-controlled reaction if the temperature is increased from 0C0^\circ C to 20C20^\circ C?

    A.

    The rate decreases as enzymes lose kinetic energy

    B.

    The rate increases as molecules move faster and collide more often

    C.

    The rate stays the same because enzymes are not alive

    D.

    The rate stops completely because the enzyme is denatured
