Several factors can influence enzyme activity in tissues:
1. pH Levels: Each enzyme has an optimal pH at which it functions best. Deviations can reduce activity. 2. Temperature: Higher temperatures generally increase enzyme activity to a point, beyond which enzymes can denature. 3. Substrate Concentration: Higher substrate levels can increase activity until the enzyme becomes saturated. 4. Inhibitors and Activators: Certain chemicals can inhibit or activate enzymes, affecting their activity levels.
