Which of the following is true of enzymes? enzymes may require a nonprotein cofactor or ion for catalysis to take speed up more appreciably than if the enzymes act alone. enzyme function is independent of physical and chemical environmental factors such as ph and temperature. enzyme function is increased if the three-dimensional structure or conformation of an enzyme is altered. enzymes increase the rate of chemical reaction by lowering activation energy barriers.

Enzymes may require a nonprotein cofactor or ion for catalysis to take speed up more appreciably than if the enzymes act alone;

Enzymes increase the rate of chemical reaction by lowering activation energy barriers.

Explanation:

Some enzymes need a cofactor to act, it is attached to the enzyme and can be nonprotein such as a metal ion. The enzyme function depends on the physical properties of the environmental, especially temperature and pH, each enzyme has a great point of pH and temperature where it has a maximum activity.

If the three-dimensional function of an enzyme is altered, it loses it specified and may not catalyze the reaction, because the structure of the enzyme is responsable for its specified. The catalyst occurs because the enzyme lows the activation energy barriers and this increases the rate of the reaction.
