Best Answer

The temperature in addition to the pH sacle of something in particular in the environment would affect the rate of speed of an enzyme and would slow down the reaction if it is too high.

What is a specific enzyme?

A specific enzyme is an enzyme that only changes the speed of ONE reaction. (It only acts on one particular substance that happens to be compatible with that enzyme) i.e. if enzyme A is specific to reaction A, it will change the speed of reaction A. However it will have no effect on any other reaction like reaction B or C.
