Question

Which of the following best explains the relationship between temperature and this enzyme?

Answer 1

Answer:

Enzymes functions in a specific temperature range.

Explanation:

• Enzymes are biochemical catalysts whose function is to speed up the rate at which chemical reactions occur.
• Enzymes work best at a specific range of temperatures known as optimum temperature.
• Low temperatures below optimum levels deactivate the enzyme and thus lowering the rate of enzyme activity.
• Extreme temperatures, on the other hand, denatures the enzyme altering enzyme's active sites making it difficult for substrates to fit.
