Answer;
The enzyme structure begins to break down
intermolecular bonds are broken
enzyme molecules gain kinetic energy.
Explanation;
Enzymes are proteins that play an important function in the body of catalyzing reactions in the body.
Enzymes work best at optimum temperature; low temperature lower than optimum temperatures deactivates them and higher temperature denatures them.
The shape of an enzyme depends on its temperature; when they get too warm they get loose, and at very low temperatures they get too tight. At optimum temperature or at the right temperature then they are just at the right shape and the chemical reactions they catalyze will be at optimal rate.
Allopatric speciation, also referred to as geographic speciation, is a method of the formation of new species due to isolation of the species from one another through geographic means.
The first step in this process is geographic isolation, which means that the original population is divided into two groups due to geographical reasons such as movement of continents or formation of water bodies.
Next, the species are subjected to different selection pressures due to their different environments. Eventually, the gene pool becomes very different for the two species due to the different selection pressures and because they are not allowed to mix.
Finally, after enough time passes, speciation occurs, which means that the two populations cannot breed to form fertile offspring.
Answer:
The Geographic barrier would have led to speciation in the finches which started from the founder effect where the finches were brought to other areas of the Galapagos. They were separated geographically so they could not mate with each other. Over time, evolution occurs through natural selection and genetic drift. This leads to the population being so different so they have reproductive barriers and can no longer interbreed. They become different species.

Hope this helps you understand better.
Scalawags are from the North I think. And Carpetbaggers are from the South.
