As we have learnt,

Denaturation of protein -

The change in the shape of the protein that disrupts it's function. Secondary and tertiary structures are destroyed but primary structure remains intact.

It occurs due to :

  1. Temperature change
  2. pH change
  3. UV rays
  4. X-rays , etc

Denaturation of protein takes place and the globular proteins present in it change and absorb all the water by hydrogen bonding.

Hence, the correct answer is Option (3)
