What happens to a lizard's metabolic rate when the temperature increases 10°c? what happens to a lizard's metabolic rate when the temperature increases 10°c? the metabolic rate approximately quadruples. the metabolic rate approximately doubles. the metabolic rate approximately triples. the metabolic rate stays constant?

Respuesta :

I think the answer is the metabolic rate approximately doubles. This is because most cellular enzymes of the lizard are more active as temperature increase. The reactant in the cell also have a greater thermal energy. Also, when heat increases the kinetic energy of the molecules involved in metabolism also increases and hence a higher metabolism rate.
