Answer:

Competition for available food resources (plants, seeds, insects, cactus etc)  among themselves.

Explanation:

The ancestral finches were the seed eating stock that fed on seeds. These ancestral finches diversified according to different types of food due to competition for available food resources (plants, seeds, insects, cactus etc) among themselves. This led to diversification of ancestral stock and evolution of unique beak size and shape in the finch population of each of the Galapagos Islands.

frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

The higher temperature is the factor which is responsible for the process of denaturation of proteins in which the breaking down of hydrogen, disulphide bonds and destabilization occurs. This process breaks up the bond between the polypeptides.

The bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor comprises of 58 amino acids this consists of the disulphide bonds which are destroyed on heating as a result of this the inhibitor becomes inactive. But on cooling it comes to the original form as the internal structure starts making hydrogen and disulphide bonds again. Thus the activity of the BPTI again gets restored.
