Final answer:

Deep-frying chickens and snails growing shells are both examples of chemical changes caused by different processes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both deep-frying chickens and snails growing shells are examples of chemical changes.

Deep-frying chickens is a chemical change because the high heat causes chemical reactions to occur leading to changes in the proteins and fats in the chicken.

Snails growing shells is also a chemical change. Snails secrete calcium carbonate to form their shells and this process involves chemical reactions.
