Which type of bonds are mostly affected in an enzyme molecule when there are pH fluctuations?
Correct answer: A. Ionic bonds
- A. Ionic bonds
- B. Disulphide bonds
- C. Hydrogen bond
- D. Peptide Bond
Explanation
Hydrogen bond will have affected due to increasein temperature than optimum value, while change in pH will affects ionic bond.

About Enzymes
Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, and their specificity is explained by the lock and key and induced fit models. Work includes the effects of temperature, pH and substrate concentration on reaction rate, plus competitive and non-competitive inhibition and how these differ.
