Which effect accelerates reactant consumption when enzymes destabilize transition states?

A)Lowered activation energy barrier
B)Increased equilibrium constant
C)Higher collisional frequency
D)Decreased diffusion limitation

💡 Explanation

Reactants consumed in enzyme catalyzed reactions rise due to enzymatic action lowering *activation energy* because it stabilizes the transition state. With lowered Ea, more molecules overcome energy barrier, therefore reaction speed elevates, rather than affecting equilibrium or diffusion.
