Answer:
As with many chemical reactions, the rate of an enzyme-catalysed reaction increases as the temperature increases. However, at high temperatures the rate decreases again because the enzyme becomes denatured and can no longer function. ... As the temperature increases so does the rate of enzyme activity.
