Question

Describe the effect of ph and temperature on enzyme activity

Answer 1

when temperature rises to a certain limit the heat adds in the activation energy and the rate of enzyme action increases but when temperature is raised well above the optimum temp heat breaks the bond in enzyme molecule in this way the globular structure of enzyme is disturbed this called denaturation of enzyme action
Ph: change in Ph can affect the ionization of the amino acids at the active sites of enzyme. it slows down the enzyme activity or block it completely
