How do birds and mammals keep cool in summer and warm in winter?

Birds and mammals are the only members of the animal kingdom which are endothermic, or "warm-blooded". This means they are able to maintain a constant body heat from within. Other creatures are ectothermic, or cold-blooded, meaning that their body temperature is influenced by external temperatures.


Which two vertebrates groups have a steady body temperature?

Mammals and birds.

How are birds different from mammals?

Birds are warm-blooded like mammals and lay eggs as some mammals do. But mammals are characterized as nursing their young, which no birds do (although some male penguins have a way of feeding newborns). Birds are also different from most mammals in these ways: 1) Birds have wings, although some can't fly (penguins, emus, ostriches) 2) They have feathers to aid with flying and waterproofing. Most mammals have fur or hair all over their body. 3) They lay eggs which are fertilized inside of the females (the eggs come out in the same form whether fertilized or not). 4) They have hollow bones whereas mammals have filled bones. 5) Most have a beak or a bill of some kind. 6) The shape of the body: most often a teardrop-shaped body and a long neck with two legs. Most mammals have four limbs with paws or feet to walk on. 7) Most birds have claws and a three-toed foot with the extra toe at the back.


What blood do insects have (warm or cold)?

AnswerCold blooded, along with reptlies and amphibians. Cold-blooded animals are now called ectotherms, for the term cold-blooded is misleading. Cold-blooded organisms maintain their body temperatures in ways different from mammals and birds. The term is now outdated in scientific contexts. Cold-blooded creatures were, initially, presumed to be incapable of maintaining their body temperatures at all. They were presumed to be "slaves" to their environments. Whatever the environmental temperature was, so too was their body temperature.

Why are birds and mammals able to tolerate a wider range of temperatures than other kinds of animals?

Birds and mammals are the only members of the animal kingdom which are endothermic, or "warm-blooded". This means they are able to maintain a constant body heat from within. Other creatures are ectothermic, or cold-blooded, meaning that their body temperature is influenced by external temperatures.


Why do birds need a lot of energy?

Birds have higher body temperatures then most mammals and because of this use a lot of energy. Maintaining body temperatures and flight are to things that birds do that require energy.


Which group of vertebrates temperature is stable?

I don't fully understand the question, but from what I gather the two types are birds and mammals. Sorry if this isn't correct. Endothermic means self-regulating body heat by the way.

Is pecocks warm blooded?

Like mammals, birds are endothermic, but they are the only animals that have feathers. Endothermic means they maintain their body temperatures internally, so, yes, they are warm-blooded.


What covers the body of mammals?

The body covering of birds is feathers. Mammals are covered in fur or hair.


Which two vertebrates groups have a steady body temperature?

Is this true or false birds and mammals are animals that use the energy from food to keep their body temperatures about the same all the time?

Yes, it is true. The food cycle of is called a food chain.


If birds are mammals how come they lay eggs?

Birds are not mammals. Mammals give birth to live young and nurse them with milk from the mother's body. Birds do not give birth to live young and do not feed their babies with their milk. ----

What is the body temperature of birds?

Chickens body temperature is from 39.8°C TO 43.6°C. HOW TO TAKE TEMPERATURE: An implantable cannula developed for use with the composite FM temperature transmitter allowed the single transmitter and temperature probe to be used to monitor body temperatures of chickens. About 100 degrees Fahrenheit
