Answer:

The correct option is: an increase in body temperature due to high fever

Explanation:

Denaturation of protein is a process by which the protein unfolds i.e. loses it's quaternary, tertiary, and the secondary structure when exposed to high temperature (above 41°C), change in pH or chemical denaturants. Denaturation of proteins leads to loss of activity.

The enzymes pancreatic proteases breaks down proteins by hydrolysis, thus leading to the denaturation of protein.

Since, generally fever does not increase the body temperature above 41°C. Therefore, it doesn't lead to denaturation of protein.

How does the electron configuration of elements within the same group compare? (A.) They all have their valence electrons in the

lesya [120]

Answer:

B.They all have their valence electrons in the same type of subshell

Explanation:

The electron configurations of elements in the same group (column) of the periodic table have them in the same type of subshell.
But the subshells may be of different shells. Thus , the energies of them need not be the same.
For example , The Alkalai Metals are found in the first column of the periodic table Group IA. This set of elements all have valence electrons in only the ' $s$ ' orbital and because they are in the first column they all have $s^{1}$ configuration. i.e,
