a researcher proposes a model of an enzyme catalyzed reaction in which reactant is converted to a product. The model is based on the idea that the reactant passes through a transition state within the enzyme substrate complex before the reactant is converted to the product. which of the following statements best helps explain how the enzyme speeds up the reaction ?

The enzyme's active site binds to and stabilizes the transition state, which decreases the activation energy of the reaction.

Explanation:

Enzymes are complex multi-folded forms of proteins - they promote chemical reactions in biological processes.

Typically, molecules collide at random, and complex chemical reactions require the right molecular orientation and energy to react (breaking and forming bonds).

Enzymes lower energy needs by providing an alternative reaction pathway and stabilize and maintain the molecules in their intermediate forms called transition states.

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.
