OLga [1]3 years ago

All enzymes are proteinaceous in nature, hence there must be a structural organisation of the protein molecule. The specific structure of the protein of the enzymes is important for the activity of an enzyme.Therefore, once an enzyme structure is destroyed due to any condition such as temperature, pressure or salinity, the enzyme become no longer functional. The active site of an enzyme become lost due to denaturation, hence unable to bind with the substrate molecule for its activity.

Echidnas are egg laying mammals that live in Australia and new Guinea. They are sometimes known as spiny anteaters since they are covered in spines and mostly eat ants and termites. As such they resemble south American anteaters and hedgehogs but are not closely related to them. Instead echidnas descended from an aquatic platypus like ancestor.

Explanation:

Divergent evolution is a process where different organisms with different anscetors evolve independently and develop similar traits due to their adaptation to similar environment.

Another example is the similarities between hummingbird and hummingbird moth, the evolved from different ancestors and yet posses similar characteristics.
