In an experiment, a researcher prepares a reaction mixture by dissolving a substance in a buffered solution. The substance is the substrate of a certain enzyme. The researcher adds a small amount of the enzyme to the reaction mixture and measures the amount of product that is formed over time. The data are represented in Figure 1.The figure presents the graph of a curve in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane. The horizontal axis is labeled Time, and no numbers are indicated along it. The vertical axis is labeled Amount of Product, and no numbers are indicated along it. Both axes end with arrowheads. The curve begins at the intersection of the 2 axes, then moves upwards and to the right at about a 45 degree angle. The curve then levels off, becoming approximately horizontal as it moves to the right. A point indicated about two thirds of the way along the horizontal region of the curve is labeled Add More Substrate.Figure 1. The amount of product formed by an enzyme-catalyzed reaction over timeWhich of the following best predicts the immediate result of adding more substrate to the reaction mixture at the point indicated by the arrow in Figure 1?
