Because since their ancestors came before them then they inherit certain beneficial traits that help them survive. Those traits are in the DNA and the animals are evolving to be more fit for the environment that they are in. (hope this helps)
If the temperature is too low, enzyme molecules don’t have enough kinetic energy to collide and combine with other substrate molecules. So the enzyme activity/ reaction rate will be very low. The rate will rise again once the temperature increases to its optimum temperature.
But if the temperature is too high, enzyme will be denatured, which means the shape of the active site of the enzyme is changed. It can no long combine with other substrate molecules. The rate will drop significantly. Yet, lowering the temperature won’t help because denaturation is permanent and irreversible.
Ribosomes<span> are different from other </span>organelles<span> because they have no membrane around them that separates them from other </span><span>organelles.

Chameleons, those shade-shifting, intricately camouflaged lizards that can change color in response to environmental or behavioral influences. Since the oldest lineages of chameleons are all from Madagascar, scientists believe they evolved on the island and spread out from there. As far as paleontologists can tell, the first chameleons evolved shortly after the extinction of dinosaurs 65 million years ago. Unlike other animals that change color, such as the squid and octopus, chameleons do not modify their hues by accumulating or dispersing pigments within their skin cells, the researchers found. Instead, the lizards rely on structural changes that affect how light reflects off their skin, the researchers said. Although chameleons are believed to have originated in Africa or Madagascar, the oldest known fossil, 26 million years old, is Chamaeleo caroliquarti from western Bohemia.
