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.

The Gulf Stream passes from the Gulf of Mexico, northward along the coast of eastern North America, and eastward toward Ireland,
anzhelika [568]
I believe it is keeping these regions warm because the water is flowing from the SOUTHERN part of these regions, like, how it starts from the bottom of the US, (aka Louisiana, Mississippi), and it gradually flows upward, but hot always overrules cold, so the cold water that it is flowing into is becoming warmer as it passes into the warm water from the gulf of Mexico.
Hope that this helps :)
