Which outcome occurs to the reaction rate when an enzyme successfully binds to the transition state?

A)Increased reaction rate due stabilization
B)Decreased reaction rate via inhibition
C)Unaffected reaction rate of substrate
D)Reversed process increasing activation energy

💡 Explanation

The increased reaction rate occurs due to enzyme binding which stabilizes the transition state by lowering the activation energy via acid-base catalysis. Therefore, the uncatalyzed reaction does not happen rather than other scenarios.
