Solution

Most living organisms cannot survive at temperatures above 45°C because their metabolic reactions and physiological functions operate optimally within a narrow temperature range. For example, humans have an optimal body temperature of 37°C, and temperatures above 45°C disrupt normal cellular processes, leading to death.
