Question:

Why is it important for the human body to maintain a proper temperature and a proper pH at all times in regards to enzymes?

Author: fahr dat



Answer:

It is crucial for the human body to maintain proper temperature and pH because enzymes, which catalyze essential biochemical reactions, are highly sensitive to changes in these factors. Enzymes have specific temperature and pH optima, and deviations from these optima can denature enzymes or alter their activity, disrupting vital metabolic processes.
