<u>Answer:</u>
Limited resources contribute to evolutionary change in animals by increasing Intra-specific competition.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Intra-specific competition means competition among the members of same species.
- Individual of same species have same ecological niche i.e. how an organism is related with biotic and abiotic aspect of environment.
- So they require same resources of their survival. When population of any species increases then there is high chance of intra-specific competition because of limited resources.
- Intra-specific competition also determine the population size of species. For example, competition among shark rodents.
1. The correct answer is pH.
The activity of the enzymes might be affected by environmental changes such as change in pH. Each enzyme has the point when it is the most active and this value is known as the optimum pH. Extremely high or low pH values can lead to loss of enzyme activity and stability.
Phosphofructokinase is sensitive to acidity, meaning that it is inhibited by low pH levels.
2. The correct answer is temperature.
Enzyme is sensitive to the environmental conditions such as temperature changes.
Temperature is a factor that usually increases the rate of enzyme-catalyzed reactions by increasing the activity of enzymes. But, after reaching the optimum temperature, reaction rate abruptly declines. This happens because enzymes are deactivated or denatured at a certain temperature (above 40° C).
D would be the correct answer
Answer:
Yersinia pestis is the causative agent of plague
Explanation:
Rodents, such as rats, carry the disease. It is spread by their fleas.
