Which of the following statements is NOT true?
None of the other four answers (all are true)
The energy required to cause a chemical reaction to occur is called the activation energy
Decomposition (degradation, catabolic) reactions are usually endergonic
Chemical reactions in living cells are catalyzed by enzymes
Enzymes increase the probability that a chemical reaction will take place by lowering the activation energy
