Question

how might changing the ph of an enzymes natural environment affect its function? select the correct answer. the chemical reaction would not be affected the chemical reaction would slow down or stop the chemical reaction would speed up the chemical reaction would require less energy

Explanation:

Enzymes have an optimal pH range. Deviating from this range can denature the enzyme, altering its active - site structure. This impairs the enzyme's ability to bind to substrates, thus slowing down or stopping the chemical reaction it catalyzes.

Answer:

the chemical reaction would slow down or stop
