cold-blooded animals must live in warm climates; warm-blooded animals can more or less live anywhere.
reason:
Warm-blooded animals produce their own body heat, so as to always keep their enzymes at the optimal temperature. Cold-blooded animals cannot do this. As the temperature falls, cold-blooded animals become disabled. They cannot move their muscles, or digest their food, or transport oxygen to their tissues.

∙ 14y agoCold blooded animals far outnumber the warm blooded; they include insects and worms, which although small and humble, are very abundant (the soil is packed with a ridiclous number of tiny worms called nematodes, which all by themselves probably outnumber every other animal in the world). Of course, warm blooded animals, although less numerous, are very important, and include us.

∙ 14y agoThe only advantage I can think of would be that they can quickly warm and cool their bodies by either laying in the sun or getting in the shade. Warm blooded animals for example would have to move in order to warm up or use a body function to cool such as sweating or panting.

∙ 12y agoCold-blooded animals are not able to control their body temperature internally (by using their metabolism) like warm-blooded animals are. A warm-blooded animal such as a dog or a cat can control their body temperature using internal processes. A cold-blooded animal such as a lizard need to lay out in the sun to raise their body temperature.

How can plants flower during winter?
Flowers dies long before winter: their sole purpose is reproduction, so once they are fertilized, they die and fruit begins to grow. The whole plant, however, can die or not during winter depending on whether it is a annual (lives one year, dies before winter) or perennial (lives through many years, and goes dormant during winter).
What happens to honey bees in winter?
Cluster to keep the queen warm and manage food supplies inside the hive and die or forage outside the hive are the things that happen to honey bees in winter. The course of the winter depends upon the population levels in the hive and the temperature levels. A cold winter results in bees inside the hive if conditions are not crowded (with ejections if they are) whereas a warm winter yields occasional forages back and forth, indoors and outdoors.
