Enzymes are proteins, and proteins are designed to exist at specific temperatures and pH levels. When the temperature or the pH of their environment changes, the interactions that hold the amino acids of the enzyme in its particular conformation cease to function. The protein simply "falls apart" into an unstructured assembly of amino acids (a polypeptide still, but no longer a true protein) and cannot fulfill its function; this is called denaturation. For most enzymes, this occurs with an increase in temperature or a decrease in pH from their standard physiological environment.
1. Temperature. 2. P.H level. 3. Enzyme concentration
The four factors that affect enzyme activity are temperature, pH, substrate concentration, and the presence of inhibitors or activators. Temperature and pH can alter the enzyme's shape, while substrate concentration determines the rate of reaction. Inhibitors and activators can either decrease or increase enzyme activity, respectively.
Concentration of the enzyme or it's substrate and the temperature.
Factors such as temperature, pH levels, substrate concentration, and the presence of inhibitors or activators can affect the activity of an enzyme. Changes in these environmental conditions can alter the enzyme's structure, ultimately impacting its ability to catalyze reactions efficiently.
The pH level of the environment and the temperature can both affect enzyme activity. Enzymes have an optimal pH and temperature range within which they function most effectively, and deviations from these ranges can reduce enzyme activity.

Three factors that can influence the activity of an enzyme are temperature, pH, and substrate concentration. Changes in these factors can alter the enzyme's shape and affect its ability to catalyze reactions effectively.

Factors that affect the rate of enzyme activity include temperature, pH, substrate concentration, and enzyme concentration. Temperature and pH can alter the shape of the enzyme, affecting its ability to bind to the substrate. Changes in substrate and enzyme concentration can affect the frequency of enzyme-substrate collisions, which impacts the rate of reaction.
A low temperature can slow down enzyme activity and high temperatures can denature an enzyme making it unusable. pH levels also affect enzyme activity. Every cell has an ideal temperature and pH

Concentration ( enzyme to substrate ), temperature and pH.
The pH level of the environment and the temperature can both affect enzyme activity. Enzymes have an optimal pH and temperature range within which they function most effectively, and deviations from these ranges can reduce enzyme activity.
temperature and pH
Temperature And Enzyme Activity: Increasing temperature means the molecules gain more kinetic energy and move faster resulting in more chances of successful collisions of enzymes and substrates forming enzyme-substrate molecules.
The pKA of enzyme affects its ionization which could alter enzyme activity. For pH < pKa, the value of vmax is constant and that for pH > pKa, vmax decreases; ie. enzyme activity starts to decline.
