Answer 1

temperature affect the organisms in their way of living because every organism has their onw invironment to live

Answer 2

Temperature affects organisms in several ways. Some of them are listed below :-

• Temperature affects the enzymatic activities of organisms.

• The enzyme kinetics of organisms change with change in temperature.

• Due to the change in the enzyme kinetics, metabolic activities and other physiological activities of organisms are also affected.

• Organisms can bear wide ranges of temperature variations and narrow ranges of temperature variations depending upon the level of adaptations in their bodies.

• Organisms which can withstand wide ranges of temperature variations are known as Eurythermal organisms.

• Organisms which can withstand a narrow range of temperature variations are known as Stenothermal organisms.
