GinnyAnswer

Final answer:

Enzyme A works best in an acidic stomach environment, exemplified by pepsin's optimal pH of about 1.5.


Explanation:

Enzyme A works best in an acidic stomach environment. Pepsin is the main digestive enzyme in the stomach that works optimally at a pH of about 1.5, which is highly acidic. In contrast, Enzyme B would not function efficiently in an acidic stomach environment due to its optimal pH being different.
