Best Answer

A warmblooded animal is able to keep its internal body temperature at about the same temperature, regardless of the temperature of its environment. For example, if a man walks outside on a 120 degree day, he will begin sweating so that the water passing through his skin cools him. Thus, his internal temperature stays at 98.6 degrees even though the outside is much hotter. This ability to keep the internal temperature at about the same at all times is called thermal homeostasis. Actually, although mammals and birds are considered warmblooded, the difference between warmblooded and cold-blooded is not definite. There are various degrees of warm-bloodedness.
