Q. The effectiveness of an enzyme is affected least by

A) Temperature
B) Concentration of the substrate
C) Original activation energy of the system
D) Concentration of the enzyme
Explanation

The enzymes lower the requirement of activation energy for catalyzing a reaction and these are least affected by the original activation energy of the system. Enzymes are thermolabile. Increase in substrate concentration or enzyme concentration increases the rate of reaction.
