What are warm-blooded or ectothermic vertebrates animals?

Ectothermic animals have an internal body temperature that changes with the temperature of its surroundings. A vertebrate is an animal with a backbone. A warmblooded animal has a constant internal temperature so WARM-BLOODED ANIMALS ARE NOT THE SAME AS ECTOTHERMS.


Do hermit crabs have a constant body temperature?

no they are cold blooded they are the temperature of their surroundings


Can stones maintain a constant temperature?

No; they have no mechanism by which they regulate or maintain a specific temperature. They tend toward the ambient temperature of their surroundings.


What characteristics greatly added to vertebrate success in relatively dry environments?

A constant body temperature.


What will the weight of a ball in water be if its weight in air is 2 newtons?

Weight in a constant gravitational field is also constant, regardless of any surroundings. The weight will be two newtons underwater as well.


What happens when a warmblooded animal is cold?

Endothermy (the state of being warm blooded) is not absolute. A warm blooded animal is an animal that has some ability to keep its internal body temperature constant, but extreme outside temperatures can overpower this ability. If a warm blooded animal is in cold enough surroundings, it will fail to keep its internal temperature constant. It will develop hypothermia, and may freeze to death. If its surroundings are not quite as cold, it will probably be able to keep its internal temperature constant, as long as it eventually enters warmer surroundings (or its present surroundings warm up).


Is the work-done in isothermal system is zero why?

If a reaction is carried out in constant temperature and constant volume no work is done and heat exchanged with surroundings is equal to the internal energy.


Is the work done in isothermal system is zero why?

Explain the Difference between adiabatic and isothermal compression?

"Adiabatic process" refers to processes that take place in a closed system with no heat interaction with it's surroundings. "Isentropic process" refers to processes that take place in a closed system with no heat interaction with the surroundings (adiabatic process) and internally reversible. This is, no internal generation of entropy, entropy stays constant, which is what is meant by "isentropic". We can also say, an isentropic process is one where entropy stays constant, and no heat interaction of the system with the surroundings takes place (adiabatic process). Or, an adiabatic process can be irreversible, or reversible (isentropic).


What is different between adiabatic system and isothermal system?

An isothremal process is one in which the temperature is constant. heat can be gained or lost in order to maintain a constant tempereature. An adiabatic process is one in which there is no heat exchange between a system and its surroundings. It does not matter whether the temperature of the system is constant or not.


What is the temperature of mercury at room temperature?

Assuming "Room Temperature" is fairly constant (i.e not fluctuating dramatically) and the sample of Mercury has had time to equilibriate with it's surroundings, then the temperature of the Mercury will be the same as "Room Temperature".. what ever that happens to be at the time.


How does your body keep a constant heat?

The body keep a constant heat because f the blood running through the body. The body temperature does not change even if the temperatures of our surroundings change.
