What is different about a warm blooded animal and a cold blooded animal?

Answer 1

Warm blooded animals have internal mechanisms that regulate their body temperature, making them less dependent on the ambient temperature. Cold blooded animals do not have this mechanism and so are more directly influenced by the temperature of the space around them.

A warm blooded animal can be highly active in the cold, but requires much more food to maintain such an active metabolism.

Cold blooded animals slow down in the cold and become more active when it is warm. Their slower metabolism requires less food, so they can go for longer between meals.

Answer 2

The difference is that cold-blooded animals cannot control their temperature.

Warm-blooded animals maintain a constant temperature no matter what the temperature around them is.

For example a fish is cold-blooded and we humans are warm-blooded. We are mammals, all mammals are warm-blooded. Reptiles are cold-blooded.

In other words, warm blooded animals have a constant body temperature while cold blooded animals do not.

Answer 3

Mammals are warmblooded animals because their body temperature is at an almost constant temperature. Unlike reptiles, whose temperature changes constantly depending on where they are laying (sun or shade).

Answer 4

The difference is that cold blooded animals are warm when their environment is warm so in the morning cold blooded creatures are very slow because they are cold. Therefore warm blooded animals warm their selves up.

Answer 5

mammals are warm blooded

Answer 6

Ye that's pretty obvious.
