The increase in temperature, enhances the rate of cellular respiration.
Explanation:
- The increase in temperature enhances the rate of cellular respiration. It is due to the heat speeds up the reactions, means the kinetic energy is higher.
- It means reactions speed up and rate of cellular respiration increases.
- When temperature decreases, in order to conserve energy, cellular processes slow.
