How are warm-blooded animals different from cold-blooded animals?
Warm-blooded creatures, like mammals and birds, try to keep the inside of their bodies at a constant temperature. Cold-blooded creatures take on the temperature of their surroundings. They are hot when their environment is hot and cold when their environment is cold
Where are white animals usually found?
Albino animals are found world wide. Animals that are white can usually be found in habitats with lots of snow. Their white coats would therefore allow them to blend in with their surroundings and give them a better chance to survive.
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
What environmental triggers cause animals to migrate?
Usually changes in temperature.
What do frogfish do to hide from predators?
They have poison glands behind their eyes. Animals who attempt to eat them usually spit them out (if they are lucky).
What is the body temperature of a caterpillar?
Usually the same as the environment around it, as caterpillars are "cold blooded" animals.
What determines whether an object is a net absorber or a net emitter of radiant energy at a given time?
All substances above absolute zero emit radiant energy. Whether the object emits more than it absorbs depends on its temperature compared to the temperature of its surroundings. An object warmer than its surroundings will usually be a net emitter.

What is the difference between cold blooded and warm blooded vertebrates?
Warm blooded animals generate their own heat through their metabolism. Cold blooded animals need warmth of the environment to bring their bodily temperature to normal temp. The main difference between a cold-blooded animal and a warmblooded one is that the warmblooded one has a physiology that includes mechanisms that heat and keep the body warm. The cold-blooded animal lacks these things and its body temperature will change in response to the weather (hot sun, snow) and what the animal can do to avoid the effects of that weather (like a lizard sunning on a rock early in the moring or hiding in the shade at noon). Warm blooded animals have a constant temperature, and can live in cold temperatures. Cold blooded animal's blood temperature depends on their environment's temperature.
How does veterinary doctor find out the body temperature of domestic animals and birds?
they stick a thermometer in the animals rear end
What are types of cold blooded animals?
cold blooded animals are usually reptiles like lizards and animals like thatreptiles.
Where does energy come from an endothermic reaction?
From the surroundings. From Wikipedia: "...a process or reaction in which the system absorbs energy from its surroundings in the form of (usually, but not always) heat."
