Bond sensitive to change in temperature and pH are respectively:
Correct answer: A. Hydrogen, Ionic
- A. Hydrogen, Ionic
- B. Hydrogen, Covalent
- C. Ionic, Hydrogen
- D. Covalent, Ionic
Explanation
Enzymes are proteins in nature, and different types of bonds (Hydrogen and Ionic) maintain their structure. Rise in temperature from optimum breaks hydrogen bonds, while a change in pH disturbs ionic bonds.

About Characteristics of Enzymes
Enzymes are globular biological catalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, usually showing specificity for particular substrates. Questions cover active sites, enzyme substrate complexes, the lock and key and induced fit models, intracellular and extracellular action, and the effects of denaturation, while distinguishing enzymes from non biological catalysts.
