Protease is an enzyme in the human body that catalyzes a chemical reaction in which

proteins are broken down into smaller molecules so that the body can use them. Which is a
likely outcome if protease does not function properly? (1 point)
The cells of the digestive system will increase in temperature and catalyze the reaction.
The chemical reaction will not occur, and the body will not be able to absorb the protein it needs.
The body will use a different enzyme to catalyze the chemical reaction.
The activation energy needed for the chemical reaction will be lowered.

How does temperature affect enzyme activity in a chemical reaction? (1 point)
The rate of a chemical reaction initially increases with increasing temperature and continues to
increase indefinitely as temperature continues to increase.
The rate of a chemical reaction initially increases with increasing temperature and then
decreases, eventually stopping, when the temperature gets too high.
The rate of a chemical reaction always decreases with increasing temperature and always
increases with decreasing temperature.
The rate of a chemical reaction initially increases with decreasing temperature and then
decreases, eventually stopping, when the temperature gets too low
