If the pH/temperature fluctuates, the enzyme conditions would no longer be favorable, meaning the enzyme would no longer be able to perform its assigned function. If the conditions become too unfavorable, the enzyme would change shape (denature).

Answer:

pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration. The pH is important for the proper metabolism of the body and different parts of the body works at the specific temperatures.

Enzymes are bio catalyst that increase the rate of biochemical reaction of the body. Enzymes works at specific pH and temperature conditions only. The increase in pH and temperature will disturb the enzymatic activity. The proteins present in our body and the enzyme will denature and loses their biological activity. The metabolism of the body gets damaged and may cause cell death as well.

Temperature affects spermatogenesis, which functions best at body temperatures just a little lower than those.

<h3>Abstract:</h3>

To keep testicular temperatures below those of the body core, adequate thermoregulation is essential. The process of mammalian spermatogenesis and the resulting spermatozoa are negatively impacted by elevated testicular temperature. Therefore, sperm quality can be affected and the likelihood of infertility is increased by thermoregulatory dysfunction resulting in heat stress. This article reviews a variety of internal and external factors that may lead to testicular heat stress. We go into more detail on how heat stress affects the spermatogenesis process, the resulting epididymal spermatozoa, germ cells, and the alterations that result in the testis.

We also go over the chemical reactions of germ cells to heat exposure and potential processes, such as apoptosis, DNA damage, and autophagy, that could lead to heat-induced germ cell damage. Further explanation is provided for the intrinsic and extrinsic processes involved in the complex mechanism of germ cell death. These intricate apoptotic pathways ultimately result in the demise of germ cells.

Aneli [31]

Answer: a. Genetic recombination (crossing over)

b. Can also be explained in terms of crossing over

c. Non disjunction of homologous chromosomes in meiosis 1

Explanation:

The process that allows for the transfer of both the paternal and maternal materials to is the crossing over process that takes at meiosis 1 changing them to secondary spermatocytes. While they are still primary spermatocytes, they are still diploid cells having both the maternal and paternal chromosomes. But since the spermatozoon is an haploid cell, it is able to retail some of both parents chromosome by the crossing over event which takes place between homologous paternal and maternal chromosomes allowing them to exchange materials. Thus the chromosomal contents of the primary spermatocyte differs from that of the spermatozoon.

C. This can occur as a result of the one of the homologous chromosome pair refusing to separate at meiosis 1 with one gamete containing 4 chromosomes/8 sister chromatids and the second having 2 chromosomes/4 sister chromatids.
