Question

how does pH affect enzyme action?

Answer 1

Enzymes usually work best at the pH level of seven if it is more than seven it is more basic if it is less than seven then it's more acidic but usually enzymes work best at pH level of seven because if it's less or more then it is denatured and the conditions are unfavorable

Answer 2

ANSWER:

Changes in pH not only affects the shape of an enzyme but also changes the shape or charge properties of the substrate

EXPLANATION:

Changes in pH may not just change the shape of an enzyme but it may further alter the appearance or charge properties of the substrate so that either the substrate cannot connect to the existing site or it cannot undergo catalysis. In common, the enzyme have a pH optimum. Despite, the optimum is not identical for every enzyme.
