Answer:

<em>This is an example of natural selection (adaptation).</em>

Explanation:

Natural selection tends to favor those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment.

As tortoises having flat shell and long neck were better adapted to live in barren area, hence through natural selection those organisms were favored in such an ecosystem.

As tortoises that lived on the vegetative lands were more adapted to live in such an ecosystem, hence through natural ecosystem these organisms were favored and increased in numbers.

Denaturing a proteins causes a change in the shape of an enzyme. *<br> True or<br> False
Katen [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Denaturing is a process in which protein looses its shape. Due to loss of shape (structure), protein also looses its function. This change in shape is due to change in temperature or pH of the protein.

Due to high temperature the shape of active site gets distorted due to which it becomes non functional. Change in active site of enzyme will  change shape of the enzyme and make it unfit for the substrate/reaction.
