What is thought to happen at 150° Celsius that prevents life from existing above this temperature.

I know, lame school question, but my friend needs to know..

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The thinking is that no life form would be able to prevent dissolution of the chemical bonds that maintain the integrity of DNA and other essential molecules.

Honestly, 4 °C rise in our temperature would have a catastrophic impact and scientists warn us to be prepared. Here are the dire consequences of 4 °C rise in temperature:
-between 7 million and 300 million more people would be affected by coastal flooding each year
-there would be a 30-50% reduction in water availability in Southern Africa and the Mediterranean, agricultural yields would decline 15 to 35% in Africa and 20 to 50% of animal and plant species would face extinction.
-In the UK, the most significant impact would be rising sea levels and inland flooding.
-Climate modellers also predict there would be an increase in heavy rainfall events in winter and drier summers.

In the end of 2005, global surfaced temperature increased to increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C and will likely rise a further to 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F) during the twenty-first century.

Therefore, it is impossible that life on earth will exist on 150 °C because a 4 °C rise in temperature can cause animal and plants extinction and since we depend on plants and animals for food, many will die of starvation.
