what scientific name is given to a temperature or ph at which an enzyme works best?

The scientific term given to the temperature or pH at which an enzyme works best is called the "optimum temperature" or "optimum pH." This refers to the specific temperature or pH value that allows the enzyme to have the highest rate of activity or maximum functioning. Enzymes have a particular three- dimensional shape crucial for their activity, and this shape is affected by temperature and pH levels. The optimum conditions maintain the enzyme's functionality by preserving its shape to bind substrates effectively. Outside this optimum range, the enzyme activity decreases, often due to denaturation or altered binding ability.
