How do you activate an Anaconda environment in the Terminal with Mac OS X?

Question

So I'm taking an online class and here are the instructions:

Install Anaconda:

Follow the instructions on the Anaconda download site.

Create a conda environment called tensorflow:

# Python 2.7
$ conda create -n tensorflow python=2.7

# Python 3.4
$ conda create -n tensorflow python=3.4

# Python 3.5
$ conda create -n tensorflow python=3.5

Activate the environment and use conda or pip to install TensorFlow inside it.

So how do you activate the environment?

I have Mac OS X by the way.
