    The document is a biology worksheet about enzymes. It contains questions about how enzymes work, their optimal conditions, and factors that affect their activity. Specifically: - Enzymes only interact with their substrate molecules. - The optimal pH for the enzyme pepsin is 3, and it works in the stomach. The optimal pH for trypsin is 8, and it works in the intestine. - Changing an enzyme's shape, such as through heating, can stop it from functioning properly. - The optimal temperature for human enzyme activity is around 37°C. Above and below this temperature, the reaction rate decreases as the enzyme denatures.
