1. Changing environmental conditions, such as temperature or pH, can affect enzyme shape. How would this alter the enzyme's function? ​

hi <3

changes in the enzyme's shape would decrease its ability to function as this would change the active site of the enzyme, meaning it is harder for it to carry out its job.

this is why we try to keep enzymes in their optimum environmental conditions so they can function their best

hope this helps :)
