In general, with every 10oC rise in the temperature [in the range 0oC to 40oC], the rate of enzyme catalyzed reaction:
1. Becomes half
2. Gets doubled
3. Remains same
4. There is no such correlation in general

Consider the two statements:
Statement I: Whether it is an exothermic or spontaneous reaction or an endothermic or energy requiring reaction, the ‘S’ has to go through a much higher energy state or transition state.
Statement II: Enzymes eventually bring down this energy barrier of activation energy making the transition of ‘S’ to ‘P’ more easy.
 
1. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
2. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
3. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct

Assertion (A): Enzyme-catalyzed reactions proceed at rates vastly higher than that of uncatalyzed ones.
Reason: Enzymes require an optimum temperature and an optimum pH to work efficiently.

Which of the following will not be correct for the steps of the catalytic cycle of an enzyme action?
1. First, the substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme, fitting into the active site.
2. The binding of the substrate induces the enzyme to alter its shape, fitting more tightly
around the substrate.
3. The active site of the enzyme, now in close proximity of the substrate, breaks the chemical
bonds of the substrate and the new enzyme- product complex is formed.
4. The enzyme gets consumed in the reaction while releasing the product.

Low temperature:
1. Preserves enzyme in a temporary inactive state
2. Denatures the enzyme
3. Makes enzyme more active
4. Does not have any affect on enzyme activity
