Enzymes control the rate and direction of the reaction they also speed up chemical reactions allowing them to occur more easily this occurs in four different ways, one way is heat, another is increasing the rate of reactants, the third way is decreasing the amount of products and the fourth way is enzymes, which speed up reaction without themselves being used up.
