Which consequence results when substrate exceeds enzyme's processing capabilities?

💡 Explanation

The reaction rate plateaus because saturation kinetics governs the enzyme's behavior at high substrate concentrations; the enzyme is fully occupied catalyzing reactions. Therefore, the reaction plateaus rather than reducing activation energy or enhancing turnover, which would affect inherent enzymatic properties.
