Answer:  C. At a pH of 8, the enzyme starts to denature and changes shape.

Explanation: The activity of the enzyme increases as the pH increases from 0 to 7 i.e in acidic medium but as the pH reaches 8, the enzyme activity starts decreasing which means the enzyme is not able to function properly.

The enzyme is made up of proteins which is composed of chain of amino acids. Thus in basic pH i.e pH above 8, the bonds of the amino acids break and the enzyme is said to get denatured as the shape of enzyme has changed.

Are there more producers or consumers in and ecosystem? Why?
Dafna1 [17]
<span>Producers or autotrophs

Autotrophs obtain energy by the process of photosynthesis. Any living organism need energy to survive and autotrophs are no different. Two types of autotrophs are present and they are Photoautotrophs and Chemoautotrophs. The Photoautotrophs rely on the energy produced during the process of photosynthesis and the Chemoautotrophs get their energy from most of the inorganic substances. Phtoautotrophs actually get their energy from the sunlight and then convert it into reusable form. In case of Chemoautotrophs ammonia is an important source of energy for them.</span>
