question 15 1 pts which of these is how enzymes affect chemical reactions in living organisms? changing the direction of a reaction increasing the temperature range weakening bonds in reactants or substrates breaking down molecules into starch
Enzymes are biological catalysts. They work by weakening the bonds in reactants or substrates, which lowers the activation - energy required for a chemical reaction to occur in living organisms. They do not change the direction of a reaction (thermodynamics determines reaction direction), do not increase the temperature range, and not all reactions involve breaking down molecules into starch.
