What is the difference between ectothermic and ectothermic animals?

Ectothermic refers to "cold blooded" animals: that is, they have little or no regulation of their internal temperature. If it's cold out, they're cold, if it's warm, they're warm. Endothermic refers to "warm blooded" animals (like us). They keep their internal temperature the same no matter what the outside temperature is.
