Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Enzyme efficiency is affected by pH.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Enzyme activity can be affected by a variety of factors, such as temperature, pH, and concentration. Enzymes work best within specific temperature and pH ranges, and sub-optimal conditions can cause an enzyme to lose its ability to bind to a substrate.

Detailed explanation-2: -Enzyme activity is at its maximum value at the optimum pH. As the pH value is increased above or decreased below the optimum pH the enzyme activity decreases.

Detailed explanation-3: -Several factors affect the rate at which enzymatic reactions proceed-temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, and the presence of any inhibitors or activators.

Detailed explanation-4: -Enzyme reactions depend strongly on pH and temperature. The direct dependence of the enzyme becomes obvious, when the enzyme activity is measured at the respective pH or temperature, while preincubation for a distinct time yields the stability of the enzyme against these influences.
