Q. Michaelis Menten constant (km) is equal to
A) The rate of enzymatic activity
B) The rate of reaction
C) Substrate concentration at which the reaction attains half of its maximum velocity
D) Substrate concentration at which the rate of reaction is maximum
Explanation
Michaelis Menten constant (km) is equal to the substrate concentration at which the velocity of the reaction is half maximum. It is inversely proportional to the enzyme activity
