Which statement about a plot of V0 versus [S] for an enzyme that follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics is FALSE?
A) As [S] increases, the initial velocity of reaction V0 also increases.
B) At very high [S], the velocity curve becomes a horizontal line that intersects the y-axis at Km.
C) Km is the [S] at which V0 = 1/2 Vmax.
D) The shape of the curve is a hyperbola.
E) The y-axis is a rate term with units of m/min.
