What are the natural sources of heat?
the earth interior
Sources of heat limits to temperature?
nthng
Are all heat sources light sources?
No.Ligtning is not a heat source.Unless u think that the electric of the lightning have heat.<<Previous answer:Yes.Fire is a heat source and a light source. If you were meaning light bulbs, then yes again. The electric current flowing through the filament (excuse spellings) causes the wire to glow (creating the light) and generate heat. This is caused by the resistance in the wire. Even tiny little leds generate heat and light. I may be wrong here.... but I dont think any light source does not generate heat of some kind. Heat is light radiation in the near and far infra-red range. You can have light sources that generate very very very little infra-red light, for example flourenscent lights produce light in the visible range almost exculsively BUT yes all light sources do produce some heat as an unavoidable energy loss.>> Lightning is a heat source. It is electricity rapidly flowing through a column of ionized air. Thunder is the shock wave it generates in the atmosphere. Think of the crackling noise a static filled blanket makes. Move it in the dark and you can see the static letting go - like lightning in miniature.
What special precautions should be used when performing the Lucas test?
Some special precautions that should be used when performing the Lucas test are to keep away from flames or other heat sources.
Why are fossil fuels and biomass useful sources of energy?
They both burn easily with lots of heat.
Are ants ectotherms?
Ectotherms are cold-blooded animals, including insects, whose body temperature is controlled by their outside environment or surroundings. Ectotherms can release their heat or be affected by their environment. Although insects do not let a large amount of heat out to their environment, they let some out and they are affected by their environment, fitting all the criteria of an ectotherm.
Would a penguin be considered endotherm or ectotherm?
A penguin is not an ectotherm because it doesn't receive heat from the sun or by doing things like bathing. The outter coat acts as a consulation, retaining the heat.
Is an alligator an ectotherm or endotherm?
Alligators are ectothermic, or cold blooded. This means that they get all of their heat from the ambient temperature. To warm up, they must bask in the sun.
Is the gray fox an ectotherm?
No. As a mammal it provides its own heat internally, making it an endotherm.
What were some of the heat sources for early earth?
yea
Is a birds feathers endotherm or ectotherm?

Is a juvenile whale an endotherm or ectotherm?
ectotherm
Is a goldfish and ectotherm or an endotherm?
A goldfish is an ectotherm.
Is a Picasso Triggerfish an ectotherm or endotherm?
An ectotherm
Is a guppy an endotherm or an ectotherm?
It's an ectotherm
Are hippopotamus ectotherms?
An ectotherm is an animal whose body temperature depends on external sources. Hippos cannot regulate their own temperature, they live in water during the day and feed at dusk when the temperature is cooler. They are therefore ectotherms
What are some alternative sources of heat renewable resources?
Urin
