										Enzyme X exhibits maximum activity at pH=6.9. X shows a fairly sharp decrease in its activity when the pH goes much lower than 6.4. One likely interpretation of this pH activity is that:
									
								
															
														
																									
										A:
											A Glu residue on the enzyme is involved in the reaction 
									
																										
										B:
											A His residue on the enzyme is involved in the reaction 
									
																										
										C:
											The enzyme has a metallic cofactor 
									
																										
										D:
											The enzyme is found in gastric secretions
