Most enzyme functions are performed at
Explanation:
When the temperature increases, the chemical bonds that make up the enzyme are not as strong since the activity increases from its normal state. The enzyme ends up losing its molecular shape, structure, and properties. This process is known as denaturation, which results in a decrease in its ability to break down complex molecules.
