How do the number of enzymes in a system change as a chemical reaction progresses?(1 point) Responses The number of enzymes stays the same over time because they are produced and consumed in the reaction equally. The number of enzymes stays the same over time because they are produced and consumed in the reaction equally. The number of enzymes will increase over time as they are produced during the reaction. The number of enzymes will increase over time as they are produced during the reaction. The number of enzymes stays the same over time because they are not consumed in the reaction. The number of enzymes stays the same over time because they are not consumed in the reaction. The number of enzymes will decrease over time as they are consumed in the reaction.

The correct response is: The number of enzymes stays the same over time because they are not consumed in the reaction.

Enzymes act as catalysts in chemical reactions, meaning they facilitate the reaction without being used up or permanently altered in the process. Therefore, their number remains relatively constant throughout the reaction.
