$\huge \color{red} \boxed{\colorbox{pink}{XD}}$

Explanation:

increasing activation energy

Answer 2

Answer:

correct answer is (3). reducing activation energy

Explanation:

Features of Enzyme Catalyzed Reactions

Enzymes are biological catalysts. Catalysts lower the activation energy for reactions. The lower the activation energy for a reaction, the faster the rate. Thus enzymes speed up reactions by lowering activation energy.
