How does the presence of a competitive friend affect the enzyme's ability to push the balls?
How does the presence of a competitive friend affect the enzyme's ability to push the balls?
- It has no effect on the enzyme's ability to push the balls
- It slows down the enzyme's movement, regardless of the number of balls
- It increases the enzyme's speed, even with fewer balls
- It reduces the number of balls available for the enzyme to push (correct)
What is the effect of the blocks on the enzyme's ability to push the balls?
What is the effect of the blocks on the enzyme's ability to push the balls?

- The blocks increase the enzyme's speed
- The blocks make it harder for the enzyme to move, even with many balls (correct)
- The blocks reduce the number of balls available for the enzyme
