Answer:

Temperature and pH

Step-by-step explanation:

An enzyme must have the ideal temperature and pH environment for it to work. If it is not in the right temperature and pH it can be denatured and not work anymore.

Temperature and pH.

Enzymes have an optimum temperature and pH. At these optimums, they work the best and most efficient. At other temperatures and pH they don’t work as efficiently. Too extreme pH conditions or too extreme temperature conditions can cause them to denature and no longer work.
