Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enzymes require specific environmental conditions, such as pH and temperature, to work best. Different enzymes have optimal ranges for these conditions, and deviating from those ranges can cause the enzyme to denature and lose its function. Coenzymes may be required for some enzymes, but not all. Enzymes also do not randomly grab surrounding molecules, as their specificity allows them to only catalyze specific reactions.
