The answer is A, denature.

As each type of enzymes has its own optimum temperature, like the temperature that they work fastest at, so if the temperature goes too high above the optimum, the 3D structure of the enzyme breaks apart and deforms and they can no longer bind with substrates thus no longer works. In this scenario, we say the enzyme is denatured.

Note that only if the temperature is too high can make the enzyme denature, if the temperature is too low, instead, the enzyme would be inactive, but once the temperature goes back to normal, they work again. Unlike denatured enzymes, which does not work even if the temperature goes back to normal.

Under which type of change in the ecosystem ( fast change or slow change) would more organisms be able to survive and why?

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

slow change

Explanation:

If the change is slow they have time to adapt. An example of a fast change is human deforestation. With their habitat suddenly removed, the organisms living there will have to find new shelter and food fast. It's likely that they'll not even be able to find anything to survive off of and die, because organisms tend to have very specific needs. For example, pandas would go extinct if bamboo was eradicated.

Freshwater fish would not be able to adapt if it was suddenly dropped into salt water. They would die. An example of a slow change would be the slow addition of salt to freshwater. Fish that are better able to survive within higher levels of salinity will be more likely to reproduce. Slowly through reproduction a new type of fish suited to salt water may be developed over several generations.
