A reptile using ectothermic methods of controlling its body temperature. These methods include things like keeping in the shade and lying on a hot rock in the sun.
A reptile maintains an internal temperature by using exothermic methods of controlling its body temperature.
They are ectothermic
no. a gecko is a reptile and therefore Ectothermic
Not all animals are endothermic (actually). The reptilian family is not endothermic and can survive without the warm-blood. Mostly, mammals are endothermic and not usually the reptile class.
An example of an organism that can control its temperature only via behavior is the common lizard (Zootoca vivipara). This ectothermic reptile relies on behavioral adaptations, such as basking in the sun to increase its body temperature or seeking shade to cool down. Unlike endothermic animals, it cannot internally regulate its body temperature, making its survival dependent on environmental cues and behaviors.
all mammals or "warm blooded" animals control their own body temperature. they all keep their body at a specific temp. while a reptile must search for heat or coolness to change their temperature
Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. This is why they are sometimes referred to as "cold-blooded." Their body temperature fluctuates with their environment.
No, they are endothermic
Neither, "Birds are winged, bipedal, endothermic (warm-blooded), egg-laying, vertebrate animals." (Wikipedia)
There are 5 types of vertebrates: Fish, amphibian, reptile, bird and mammal. Endothermic (warm blooded) vertebrates are: birds, mammals. Exothermic (cold blooded) vertebrates: fish, amphibian, reptile.
The blood temperature of a reptile is typically influenced by its environment and can vary. Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. This allows their blood temperature to fluctuate based on the surrounding environmental conditions.
No, an iguana is a reptile. They are cold-blooded and egg laying. They do not produce milk or have fur.
