Answer:
There are no options to this question, however, it can be answered. The answers to the blank spaces are:
1. Fatty Acids
2. A decrease in the rate of lipid breakdown
Explanation:
Lipids are large biomolecules that are formed from monomeric units called FATTY ACIDS. Digestive enzymes such as lipase as described in this question breaks down lipids into its monomer called FATTY ACIDS.
However, enzymes are proteinous molecules, meaning they are subject to denaturation when exposed to adverse conditions such as heat. According to this question, the scientist heats the enzymes and finds that it can't bind onto the lipids anymore because it has been DENATURED. This situation will result in the DECREASE IN THE RATE OF LIPID BREAKDOWN because the enzyme in charge is no longer functional.
The second graph presented in the image below shows the survivorship of whales.
As we can see, the population grows rapidly after the calves reach adulthood, but the environmental factors limit the growth of the population and the population growth reached a plateau after a period of intense growth.
Answer:
If a whole specie of organisms has to survive, they should must possess the ability to reproduce and adopt to environmental conditions in better way.
For example: If a disaster occurs or a condition of unfavorable weather occurs, the specie will survive even if only few members remain alive. Because those members will reproduce and regrow the community.
The reason is this that reproduction is not important for the survival of one organism, like organism will still survive even if he do not reproduce, but if a whole specie has to survive and continue, reproduction is most important trait.
