Reducing activation energy Select one: a. is accomplished by the action of catalysts on reactants. b. requires higher temperatures than those found within cells. c. is a violation of the laws of nature. d. occurs only when reactants are quickly added to the reaction mixture.
Answer:A catalyst is something that lowers the activation energy; in biology it is an enzyme. The catalyst speeds up the rate of reaction without being consumed; it does not change the initial reactants or the end products.
