Each enzyme has a temperature at which it works best. A slight increase in temperature can increase enzyme activity while a larg

e increase in temperature can cause the enzyme to become denatured. Which of the following best explains what happens when a protein becomes denatured? ...?
The enzyme absorbs heat until the temperature decreases, and the reaction then continues normally.

The enzyme breaks apart into the amino acids that originally combined to form the enzyme.

The enzyme loses its shape and is no longer able to catalyze chemical reactions.

The enzyme unfolds and refolds into a different shape, and is used to catalyze a different chemical reaction.

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

Enzymes are the  bio catalyst that can increase the rate of a bio chemical reaction without themselves going under any change. Enzyme decreases the activation energy of the reaction and increases the rate of reaction.

Denaturation of protein results in the loss of biological activity of enzyme. The enzyme loses its shape and cannot catalyze the reactions as enzymes are shape specific.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

How would you explain the “density of the elephant population” to someone?
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The most effective experimental approach to assess the effects of elephant impact on vegetation is to assess plant responses under differences in elephant density. It is important that other factors, such as soils or habitat structure are held constant so that the only factor which varies is elephant density.

[ C. Coriolis Effect ]

If the Earth didn't rotate, winds would travel north or south because of the differences in pressure and temperature. The Earth does rotate, so, the Coriolis Effect diverts the wind to the left of the Southern Hemisphere and right of the Northern Hemisphere. The Coriolis Effect is very important because it creates cyclonic weather system.s
