Solution

The correct option is D Activation
Chemical reactions take place mainly at a specific temperature in presence of a catalyst. The substrate and product have different energy state. The energy gap between the substrate and the product is known as activation energy which is the minimum energy required to initiate a reaction. In presence of a catalyst, the activation energy lowers and the substrate changes into the product.
So, the correct answer is option C.
