Read the following statements and choose the correct option: 1. Enzymes generally function in a narrower range of temperature and pH. 2. Each enzyme shows its highest activity at a particular temperature and pH called the optimum temperature and optimum pH. 3. Low temperature preserves the enzyme in a temporarily inactive state 4. High temperature destroys enzymatic activity because proteins are denatured by heat. 5.

Step-by-step solution

Enzymes generally function in a narrow range of temperature and pH . Each enzyme shows its highest activity at a particular temperature and pH called the optimum temperature and optimum pH. Activity declines both below and above the optimum value. Low temperature preserves the enzyme in a temporarily inactive state whereas high temperature destroys enzymatic activity because proteins are denatured by heat.,Fats and oils are differentiated based on melting point. Oils have lower melting point and hence remain as oil
