Detailed Solution
Enzymes decrease the energy of activation of a biochemical reaction. So that the reactions in a living cell can occur at body temperature. An enzyme uncatalyzed reaction requires more activation energy. Enzymes are sensitive to temperature and pH. Lesser is the KM value higher is the affinity of enzyme towards the substrate. It differs from enzyme to enzyme and substrate to substrate.
