Cells can function?
only in a narrow range of temperature and pH.
What is the normal pH of a stream?
The normal pH of a stream ranges between 6.5 to 8.5. A pH value that is higher or lower than this range would adversely affect the survival of the aquatic organisms living the stream.
Do enzymes work best at a narrow PH range?
I love halo 3
What type of molecule prevents extensive changes in the pH of living organisms?
humans use bicarbonate as a PH buffer in the bloodBuffering of course!
Why is pH necessary?
It is important to know the PH of various substance so as to prevent damage to the human beings and certain materials. The knowledge of PH is also important in environmental and water analysis.
Cells can function?
only in a narrow range of temperature and pH.
Why is the buffering capacity of organic substances so important to living organisms including humans?
Most enzymes will only work at a specific pH range. A buffer will keep the pH around the enzyme from leaving this range.
What is the difference between universal strips and narrow indicator strips?
Universal strips will show a wide range of pH values, but the color range between pH values is limited. The narrow strips will show a wider range of colors, but won't show you anything outside the range of the pH paper.
Why does pepsin not function well at a pH of 7?
Enzimes are sensitive to pH and function best across a narrow range of pH.
Is hydrogen a living organisms?
If you ment A living organism, then no it isn't. But I'm sure you ment in living organisms. Then yes, it is an important element found in most organisms and is used for a great range of functions. One example would be pH regulation in the blood, or any other liquid.
Can cells function only in a narrow range of temperature and pH?
This is generally true. The allowable ranges vary from cell type to cell type, but extremes of temperature and pH will generally kill living cells.
What is the normal pH of a stream?
The normal pH of a stream ranges between 6.5 to 8.5. A pH value that is higher or lower than this range would adversely affect the survival of the aquatic organisms living the stream.
How does the pH scale affects organisms?
For functioning each organism has an adequate range of pH.

What is the pH and what is its optimal range in living matter?
actually it is a fruit.
Why use narrow-range pH paper to measure the milk's change in pH?
i have the same question dude i need help with it also not rlly an answer but w.e
What would be the consequences of having only one pH range eg pH 9-14 instead of the normal pH 1-14 with regards to living organisms and their survival?
It would be really difficult to try to assess the impact on the countless different chemical reactions that are used by living organisms, of the loss of a range of pH such as all acidic pH levels, but I do know that some reactions happen better or more easily in a low pH and some require a high pH, so there would definitely be problems. The human digestive system, for example, starts the digestive process at a low pH in the stomach, and completes it at a high pH in the intestines. Life is admittedly very adaptable, and perhaps could adapt to that limitation, but it is hard to say.
