The Potential Hypothesis is that the rate of cellular respiration increases with body temperature.
Yes, the data support the hypothesis as the graph shows a positive correlation between cellular respiration and body temperature. This means that as body temperature increases, the rate of cellular respiration also increases.
Enzymes are the catalysts that drive cellular respiration. Enzymes are temperature-dependent, meaning that they work best at a certain temperature range. As body temperature increases, the enzymes involved in cellular respiration become more active, increasing the overall rate of respiration.
