Why is it important that your body carefully control the temperature and pH of its tissues?

Because enzymes (and metabolism in general) are sensitive to changes in temperature and pH and optimized to certain values to properly maintain homeostasis.


Why must the enzyme exist in a specific type of environment in order to function properly?

Enzymes that are sensitive to changes in their physical or chemical environment, such as changes in pH or temperature will change their shape if placed in suboptimal environments. Most enzymes are proteins, and it's a protein's shape that determines their function. Change the shape, and the enzyme is denatured, and can no longer function for its purpose adequately.


How pH effects Stability and Activity of Enzymes?

Enzymes are very pH-sensitive. Any change in pH results in denaturing of proteins.
