Does increasing the pH increase enzyme activity? Why?

increasing it from what to what? Every enzyme has an optimal pH that it operates in. If you take digestive enzymes, there are some that work in the stomach and are optimized to function in the low pH environment there. But then in the intestines, there is a higher pH and the enzymes there work optimally in that pH.
