Which influence on reaction rate arises when an enzyme's active site stabilizes the transition state?

💡 Explanation

Enzymes catalyze reactions via transition state stabilization: this lowers the *activation energy* because the enzyme provides a lower energy path, therefore reaction rate constants increase rather than alternative direct effects like simple changes in equilbrium.
