To identify the correct statement regarding enzyme activity based on the graph you described, we need to analyze the temperature performance of the enzyme.
Generally speaking, if the graph shows a peak at a certain temperature, that would indicate the optimal temperature for enzyme activity. Here are the possible interpretations based on your statements:
-
This enzyme works equally well at all temperatures - This is unlikely if there is a peak, as enzymes typically have an optimal temperature range.
-
This enzyme works best at 10 degrees - If the graph shows low activity at 10 degrees, this would not be correct.
-
This enzyme works best at 45 degrees - If the peak of the graph falls at or around 45 degrees, this statement could be true.
-
This enzyme works best at 60 degrees Celsius - Similar to the previous statement, if the graph shows the highest activity at 60 degrees, then this could also be correct.
To choose the right answer, you would need to look at the peak of the graph to see which temperature corresponds to the highest level of enzyme activity. You can select the statement that matches the peak temperature indicated in the graph. Without seeing the graph, I cannot definitively tell you which statement is true. Please check where the peak of the activity is located to determine the correct statement.
