Which outcome occurs when elevated temperature alters enzymatic geometry?

A)Substrate affinity reduces drastically
B)Equilibrium constant shifts favourably
C)Michaelis constant reduces consistently
D)Reaction order switches instantly

💡 Explanation

Enzyme denaturation occurs because it relies on a specific tertiary 3D geometry; this unfolding alters the active site accessibility, therefore affinity decreases, rather than reactions speeding up or shifting equilibrium at lower temperatures, thus constant values remaining unchanged.
