What Vertebrate whose body temperature remains constant regardless of the temperature of its surroundings?
Endotherm
What are Animals whose body temperature usually stays the same?
Vertebrate animals are able to stay at the same body temperature no matter where they live
Are hawk vertebrate or invertebrats?
Vertebrates are animals whose spine and skeletal structure are internal, beneath their muscle and skin. By this definition, a hawk is a vertebrate.
What is the difference between an ectotherm and an endothermic?
Ectotherm- an animal whose body temperature changes with the temperature of its surrounding environment. Endotherm- an animal whose body temperature does not change with its surrounding environment. Ectotherms are animals like snakes and lizards that change their body temp with the ambient temperature. Endotherms are humans and other mammals like birds that keep there body temperature the same no matter what the climate is like. The process of homeostasis regulates our body temperature through negative feedback. For example, when our body temperature decreases due to the cold environment, we shiver to increase the body temperature. When the body temperature increases, we sweat to decrease the body temperature.
What name is given to warmblooded vertebrate whose bodies are usually covered with hair or fun called?
mammals

Organisms living near hydrothermal vents are .?
The organisms living near hydro thermal vents are cold blooded animals whose body temperature does fluctuate as per the environment. There thermo regulatory receptors are missing and they do not posses any control over their body temperatures.
What are ectotherms?
Ectotherms (from Latin for outside heat) are animals whose body temperature is controlled by their behavior or by their external environment. The term is generally applied to "poikilotherms" whose temperature fluctuates directly with the ambient temperature of their surroundings.Formerly referred to as "cold blooded", ectotherms include reptiles, fish, and amphibians. "Warm-blooded" animals are also called "homeotherms" (Latin same temperature) and use their metabolism to heat and cool themselves.
How the resistance of conducting material vary with temperature?
Well, there's typically two types of materials-Those with positive temperature coefficient and those with negative temperature coefficient. Positive temperature coefficient are those whose resistance increases as temperature increases. Negative temperature cofficient are those whose resistance decrease when the temperature increase. There are however some alloys such as Manganin& Constantan whose resistance is not affected by temperature
What do you callan animal whose body temperature changes with the temperature of the environment?
ectotherms
What is the difference between ambient food and chilled food?
Ambient foods are those that are stored at ROOM TEMPERATURE such as tinned foods, tinned meats etc. These would normally in their unprocessed state require refrigeration i.e. A ham which is raw will require chilled storage but once cooked and processed it can stay in a tin in normal temperature. Milk is a classic example where fresh milk requires chilled storage yet processed milk (long like) has the ability to be stored in room temperature. Chilled foods are those that re normally refrigerated between the temperatures of 1 degree to 7 degrees. These may not have been processed to allow for normal room storage i.e. packet hams, yogurts etc. There are some in this class that are not effected by temperature but which are stored in either ambient or chilled these are things like white wine, soda drinks etc. These are ambient but are described as "best served chilled". Chilled food are normally whose shelf life is effected by temperature i.e. fresh meats, fish dairy products that go off when subjected to room temperatures.
