When a biochemical reaction is carried out in a laboratory outside the human body in the absence of an enzyme, then the rate of reaction obtained is times. The activation energy of a reaction in the presence of an enzyme is:
1.
2. P is required.
3. Different from obtained in the laboratory.
4. Data is insufficient.
