Decrease Temperature Molecules Kinetic Energy Solution Explain Rate

Front A decrease in temperature decreases the kinetic energy of molecules in a solution. Explain how a decrease in temperature decreases the rate of an enzyme-controlled reaction. ( 2 marks)
Back molecules moving less/slower;
reduces chance of collision (between enzyme and substrate)/of enzyme-substrate complexes being formed;
