Question

Enzymes are sensitive to pH and temperature. If an enzymes environment is too hot, the enzyme cannot

Answer 1

Answer: If an enzyme temperature is too hot then enzyme cannot work properly.

Explanation: This is because enzymes are catalyst that work on optimal temperature. At high temperature, denaturation results. the structure of enzyme basically changes and then enzymes and substrates cannot fit into each other. Hence it is not able to work longer.

Answer 2

Answer: Yes enyzmes are sensitive to pH and temperature

Explanation:

if the temperature is above 60 - 70 degree celcius, it looses it's ability to catalyse as such emzymes are kept within the normal body temperature to function effectively. Emzymes are also sensitive to PH changing the pH of its surroundings will also change the shape of the active site of an enzyme and also changing the pH will affect the charges on the amino acid molecules
