Answers
Answer:{a}Lacidic medium- Therefore, in case of gastric digestion, enzymes function optimally in acidic medium instead of alkaline, highly alkaline or neutral medium.
{b alkaline medium-]in case of gastric digestion, enzymes function optimally in acidic medium instead of alkaline, highly alkaline or neutral medium. In an alkaline or neutral medium, activation of enzymes would be affected.
{c} Neutral medium-n case of gastric digestion, enzymes function optimally in acidic medium instead of alkaline, highly alkaline or neutral medium. In an alkaline or neutral medium, activation of enzymes would be affected.
{d} Highly alkaline medium-Alkaline refers to an aqueous solution having a pH greater than 7 or a [OH-] greater than 10-7. An alkaline solution is also known as basic.
