Question

There is an enzyme in your stomach. Explain how the enzyme would be affected if it was moved

the small intestines.

Answer 1

It might not work as efficiently because the conditions are different

Step-by-step explanation:

The stomach is highly acidic compared to the small intestine. That means the pH is higher in the small intestine. Stomach enzymes are adapted to work at low pH, but might not work at a higher pH as in the small intestine. They might not be able to efficiently catalyze reactions in the small intestine.
