← ScienceWhich process decreases when increased temperature lowers activation energy?
A)Endothermic reaction rate increases rapidly
B)Exothermic equilibrium shifts more quickly
C)Inhibition pathways cause enzyme deactivation✓
D)Inert gas pressure creates concentration increases
💡 Explanation
Enzyme deactivation occurs via inhibition pathways because thermal energy impacts binding sites, preventing substrate fit; therefore deactivation rises rather than an acceleration in endothermic/exothermic reactions that depend otherwise on activation enthalpy.
