How does the immune system work together with the circulatory system to function properly? A. Red blood cells released by immune cells cause increased blood flow to the infection site; this increased blood flow brings other red blood cells to the area more quickly B. White blood cells move through the body (to parts where they are needed) in the blood vessels of the circulatory system to destroy pathogens. C. The circulatory system's arteries cause the immune system to work harder by bringing oxygen-depleted blood to the infection site. D. The immune system's red blood cells fig

Pepsin, a common enzyme found in the stomach, is most active at pH values between 0.5 and 2.5. It works slowly between pH values of 2.6 and 3.4. Beyond a pH of about 3.5, it becomes completely inactive. Why does this happen? A) The enzyme inactivates because it melts into a liquid when it is not at the right pH. B) The protein chain in the enzyme is denatured, permanently inactivating it as the pH approaches 7. C) The enzymes slow down, because changing the pH changes the temperature as well, and affects the reaction.
