Cell specialization is important because
-it is required for cells to perform as part of a living thing

Answer:
If trypsin is in an acidic environment, it will decrease its function, since its optimum pH is 8.
Explanation:
Trypsin is an enzyme responsible for break peptide bonds, thus hydrolyzing proteins into peptides and amino acids. This enzyme is secreted by the pancreas and poured into the duodenum —an alkaline environment— where it acts.
<u>Since the </u><u>optimal pH for trypsin to fulfill its function is 8</u><u>, if the enzyme were placed in an </u><u>acidic environment</u><u> it would decrease its function</u>. This is because enzymes work under specific pH and temperature conditions, and changes in these conditions affect enzymatic activity.
Answer:
5 lumbar vertebrae
Explanation:
As you can see in the image I annexed, a typical adult skeleton has 5 lumbar vertebrae (colored in red), they are cylindrical bones located between the rib cage and the pelvis, they are the largest segments of the vertebral column. These vertebrae carry all of the upper body’s weight, they protect the spinal cord and nerves in the vertebral canal, they also provide flexibility and movement to the trunk region.
