Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The polar ice cap melting is an event that takes place at a longer duration, and is usually measured by the end of every decade. This melting of ice caps in the polar region is caused due to the increasing amount of the earth's surface temperature. One of the main reasons is the increasing amount of carbon in the atmosphere for the last few decades.

On, the other hand, there occurs certain changes which take place in a very short time, in terms of hours or days. Some of its examples include the rise in the sea level due to the tidal effect, changing of wind direction and changing of the pressure system from low to high and vice versa.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Troyanec [42]

The complete question is attached to the answer.

Answer:

The correct hypothesis would be -  the food (proteins) are not completely broken down in the intestine due to intestinal Protease production is lower than normal in Claire.

Explanation:

According to the image, we can find that the normal intestine fluid has the same pH as the pH of claire's Intestine fluid which is suitable for the breaking down of the food or protein in particular. It is also found that there is some amount of protein digested which suggests that there is no mutation in the active site.

According to the graph, claire is able to break down or digest the food completely if 1mg proteases enzyme is used so it proves the enzyme is produced less than normal. On the basis of this information, the correct hypothesis would be -

"The food (proteins) are not completely broken down in the intestine due to intestinal Protease production is lower than normal in Claire."
