At 0°C, the reaction rate for enzymes is significantly slowed down. This is because low temperatures reduce molecular movement, leading to fewer collisions between enzymes and substrates. While enzymes remain intact at this temperature, their activity is greatly diminished, often resulting in very low or negligible reaction rates. Optimal enzyme activity typically occurs at higher temperatures, where molecular motion increases.
