Temperature affects the enzyme because an enzyme operates best at temperatures 35 to
40°C but works best at 37°C in humans prokaryotes which are thermophilic live better in
warmer conditions like in hot Springs and can operate in conditions of 70° and higher if an
enzyme in a human is too hot it could be denurture the enzyme. pH of affect enzymes
because pH in humans work best at a ph of seven. In lysosomic enzymes they work best at
a pH of five and then Pepsin which is a protein in the stomach works best at a pH of two
highly acidic wild trypsin a protein in the small intestine works better at a pH of eight highly
basic
Catabolic reactions are exergonic an example of one is cellular respiration in anabolic reaction It is
endergonic an example of this is photosynthesis

Positive feedback is when the endproduct increases the production of the rest of the thing. An example of
this is oxytocin increasing during childbirth allowing for more contractions and movement in the baby for
negative feedback. It is when the end product slows down the production of the rest of the reaction an
example of this is when ATP inhibits the production of ATP.

ATP gives energy to cellular junction movements like muscle contraction allowing us to move that is why it
is important
