Enzymatic reactions

Regarding enzymatic reactions, how distinct are the graphic curve of the variation of speed of a reaction as function of the substrate concentration and the curve of variation of the speed of a reaction as the function of temperature?

The curve of variation of speed of enzymatic reaction as a function of mounting substrate concentration is a growing curve till the point where it stabilizes due to the saturation of activation centers of the enzymes. The curve of variation of speed of an enzymatic reaction as a function of mounting temperature has a crescent part and reaches a peak (that is, the optimum temperature) then it reduces and reaches zero (0) in the point of inactivity of the enzymes through denaturation.
