The idea
In a data series, the maximum is the highest value and the minimum the lowest. A question may ask at what condition the maximum occurs, as well as how large it is.
In practice
Invented enzyme activity peaks at 37°C, at 92 units, and falls on both sides.
Where people slip
Give the half of the answer asked for: the condition, 37°C, or the value, 92 units.
