The reaction is catalysed with the help of the enzyme which increases the rate of reaction. The substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme and the product is formed. In the graph, there is a plateau region at the end of the graph. This region denotes that the all the substrate present in the reaction has been converted to the product. There are no more substrates left and so the rate of the reaction becomes stable.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
