Each enzyme has a temperature at which it works best. A slight increase in temperature can increase enzyme activity while a large increase in temperature can cause the enzyme to become denatured. Which of the following best explains what happens when a protein becomes denatured

The enzyme would fail to work if denatured because it is not shaped correctly to attach to a protein.

Hope this helps!
