The rate of enzyme action decreases at higher temperature [after a certain value] because the increased heat
1. changes the pH of the system
2. alters the active site of the enzyme
3. neutralizes the acids and bases in the system
4. increases the concentration of the enzyme

Select the option which is not correct with respect to enzyme action:
1. Substrate binds with enzyme at its active site.
2. Addition of a lot of succinate does not reverse the inhibition of succinic dehydrogenase by malonate.
3. A non-competitive inhibitor binds the enzyme at a site distinct from that which binds the substrate.
4. Malonate is a competitive inhibitor of succinic dehydrogenase.

Prosthetic groups differ from co-enzymes in that
1. they require metal ions for their activity.
2. they (prosthetic groups) are tightly bound to apoenzymes.
3. their association with apoenzymes is transient.
4. they can serve as co-factors in a number of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
