What happens to an enzyme’s structure as it exceeds the typical human body temperature?
As the temperature increases beyond the optimal range, enzyme molecules gain kinetic energy. This causes the intermolecular bonds holding the enzyme's shape together to break, leading to the breakdown of the enzyme's structure, a process known as denaturation.
