Chhattisgarh PMTChhattisgarh PMT 2005

Solution:

Activation energy is the excess of energy over the average energy that the reactant molecule must acquire for reaction to occur.
So, in presence of enzyme, activation energy decreases because catalyst provides a new- reaction path with a lower energy barrier.
