The carbon cycle refers to the movement of carbon through the living and non living parts of the environment
Air contains carbon in the form of a gas, carbon dioxide.
Plants and other photosynthesis organisms remove carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis
These organisms use carbon to make food molecules.
Consumers break down food molecules to obtain energy
Release carbon dioxide as waste.
When producers and consumers die their remains are broken down by consumers
Returns carbon compounds to soil.
Releases carbon dioxide to the air.
Human activity can affect the amount of carbon in the atmosphere.
Burning fossil fuels

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.
