The correct answer is that the population of foxes will also decrease in size.

The population of the fox is majorly dependent on the population of mice as the source of their food, and due to a fatal disease infecting the mice population, the population of the fox who majorly consumes mice would also get infected with the same deadly disease.

This condition will eventually result in declining of fox population due to their over-dependence on mice as the source of food.

The answer is A, denature.

As each type of enzymes has its own optimum temperature, like the temperature that they work fastest at, so if the temperature goes too high above the optimum, the 3D structure of the enzyme breaks apart and deforms and they can no longer bind with substrates thus no longer works. In this scenario, we say the enzyme is denatured.

Note that only if the temperature is too high can make the enzyme denature, if the temperature is too low, instead, the enzyme would be inactive, but once the temperature goes back to normal, they work again. Unlike denatured enzymes, which does not work even if the temperature goes back to normal.

Which of the following provide the most readily available energy?
emmasim [6.3K]
<span>The answer is a. carbohydrates. The amount of potential energy in the molecule depends on the number of C-H bonds in the molecule. Carbohydrates have more C-H bonds. Thus, they can serve as energy storage. Other macromolecules have less C-H bonds. Thus, when energy is needed immediately, complex carbohydrates break down to simple carbohydrates and the energy is released.</span>
