1. The landscapes they live in are patchy (making dispersal between populations difficult).

2. Environmental conditions often change in a rapid and unpredictable manner.

The GPK in skeletal muscle is a huge protein with multiple subunits:

Kinase subunit contains the catalytic activity that activates GP 

Regulatory subunits is the ubiquitous protein calmodulin
