Science

Which outcome alters the dynamic equilibrium constants of multiple reactions within a metabolic pathway when temperature varies?

A)Enzyme conformational destabilization rises disproportionately
B)Metabolite diffusion rates become homogenized
C)Feedback inhibition cascades grow buffered
D)Substrate binding site affinities equalize

💡 Explanation

Enzyme conformational destabilization occurs because Arrhenius' Law dictates that rate constants change unevenly with temperature. Therefore, equilibrium will shift in some reactions much more than others, rather than diffusion equally changing everything else.
