Each enzyme has an optimum pH at which it attains is maximum activity. That optimum pH varies for each enzyme. The optimum range for pepsin is 1.5 – 2; for pancreatic lipase it is 4.0 – 5.0. Any change below or above the optimum pH range for a specific enzyme results in a decrease in enzyme action. Which graph best represents the general statement describing pH and enzyme action?
