What is the effect of ph on enzyme activity?

Biology
1 answer:
expeople1 [14]3 years ago
4 0
Enzymes, which are biological catalysts that aid in chemical reactions, by lowering the energy of activation or barrier, are affected by changes in PH, as increasing or decreasing PH, would result in higher or fewer concentrations of H+, which depending on the amount can undergo hydrogen bonding and other interactions that may cause changes to specific areas of the enzyme, specifically the active site. These changes can slow the activity of the enzyme in catalyzing reactions.

Answer:

The correct answer is C. be more likely to have cancer at some point in his/her life.

Explanation:

Cell cycle checkpoints are controlled by different proteins which are coded by different genes. They are important in cell cycle regulation and stops cell cycle immediately if they find any problem in the cell like mutation.

The cell cycle will not be continued if the problem does not solve and cell death will occur which prevents cancer by preventing the mutation to spread into new cells.  

Therefore if a mutation occurs in certain genes that enforce a checkpoint on the cell cycle then the mutated gene will pass in new cells and the mutated cells will grow uncontrollably due to no checkpoints so the person will probably have cancer at some point in his or her life.
