In northern Maine, it is rumored that the farmers put the old folks out in the barn for the winter to save food and defrost them in the spring to help work in the fields. Is this possible? Explain on a chemical and cellular level

i'll try what topic lol

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.

c is the answer. hope this
