Pretty sure the answer is D
the active site accepts more substrates

This is why...
Change the pH and the enzyme stops working. Increasing the temperature to 60°C will cause a permanent change to the shape of the active site. This is why enzymes stop working when they are heated. We say they have become denatured.
The answer should be C) The enzyme disappears.
