What is the difference between an ectotherm and an endothermic?
Ectotherm- an animal whose body temperature changes with the temperature of its surrounding environment. Endotherm- an animal whose body temperature does not change with its surrounding environment. Ectotherms are animals like snakes and lizards that change their body temp with the ambient temperature. Endotherms are humans and other mammals like birds that keep there body temperature the same no matter what the climate is like. The process of homeostasis regulates our body temperature through negative feedback. For example, when our body temperature decreases due to the cold environment, we shiver to increase the body temperature. When the body temperature increases, we sweat to decrease the body temperature.
whose body temperature does not change much even when the temperature of the environment changes is called?
Animals whose body temperatures do not change much despite the temperature of the environment changing are called ectotherms. This ability allows some animals to live in harsh environments.
What is an exampl of an ectotherm?
Any animal whose body temperature is regulated by it's environment (reptile, some fish, etc.)
What animal or palnt uses the adaptation system?
Adaptations are necessary for animals whose living conditions might change. In general, all animals and plants are adapted to their environment.
What organisms are poikilotherms?
The term "cold-blooded animal" is now referred to as an ectotherm. Snakes, lizards, fish, burrowing desert animals, and insects are all ectotherms, whose temperature fluctuates since it is controlled by the environment. An example would be a turtle for instance.
What is a hot glass rod?
It is a cylindrical piece of glass whose temperature is higher than that of its environment.
Is a mouse an endothermic or and ectotherm?
Ectothermic means its cold bloodedendothermic means that its warm bloodedOne trait that distinguishes the major groups of vertebrates from one another is the way in which they control their body temperature. Most fish, amphibians, and reptiles have body temperatures that are close to the temperature of their environment.2 Fish, amphibians, and reptiles are ectotherms. An ectotherm is an animal whose body does not produce much internal heat. Its body temperature changes depending on the temperature of the environment. For example, when a turtle is lying in the sun on a riverbank, it has a higher body temperature than when it is swimming in a cool river. Ectotherms are sometimes called "cold-blooded," but that is misleading. The blood of ectotherms is often quite warm.3 In contrast to the turtle, a beaver would have the same body temperature whether it was in cool water or on warm land. The beaver is an endotherm. An endotherm is an animal whose body controls and regulates its temperature by controlling the internal heat it produces. An endotherm's body temperature usually does not change much, even when the temperature of its environment changes. Mammals and birds are endotherms. They have a stable body temperature that is typically much warmer than their environment. Endotherms are often called "warm-blooded" animals.
Can an animal be both cold and warm blooded IE can there be an animal whose body temperature is maintained homeotherm or changes in the environment poikilotherm depending on circumstances?
I'm not absolutely sure but i am pretty sure they can only be one. don't trust me though i might not be right.
Name the animal whose body temperature remains constant during all seasons?
Any cold blooded animal such as birds
Whose Raffesia on Animal Crossing?
Not a person. A big flower. A bad sign. Decreases environment state.
Whose to be blame by temperature change?
Lovin Bradley! (chillin wit persephony and jennifer) from aaliyah!
