← ScienceWhich outcome reduces reaction rate in anaerobic fermentation?
A)Product inhibition exceeds substrate consumption✓
B)Enzyme diffusion creates local shortage
C)Temperature controls limit enzyme function
D)Catalyst aging raises activation barriers
💡 Explanation
Product inhibition decreases reaction rates in fermentation because high concentrations of the final product bind to the enzyme's active site, impeding substrate binding, therefore slowing reaction rate rather than speeding up the rate at the intended lower product concentration.
