Which consequence results when an enzyme's conformation changes at high temperatures?

💡 Explanation

Enzyme denaturation, which unfolds the enzyme, decreases the reaction rate constant because it disrupts active site geometry, interfering with substrate binding; therefore reaction rate slows, rather than any of the alternative enzyme function enhancements.
