Birds and mammals are the two vertebrate groups that have a steady body temperature, known as endothermy. This allows them to regulate their internal body temperature independently of the external environment, which helps them thrive in a wide range of habitats.
yes they can control their body temperature
Thermoregulation
It is not steady, so to get it to the right temprature, the amphibian sits in the sun.

"Homeotherms" maintain a steady body temperature and are warm-blooded, as opposed to "Poikilotherms" which are cold-blooded.An example of a homeotherm is a Lion, an example of a poikilotherm is a Crocodile.
Vertebrates regulate their body temperature through a process called thermoregulation. This can involve behaviors like seeking shade or sun, and physiological processes like shivering or sweating. Some vertebrates are able to maintain a constant body temperature regardless of the external environment (endotherms), while others rely on their surroundings to regulate their temperature (ectotherms).
Not all vertebrates are warm blooded. Vertebrate and invertebrate are terms that refer to whether or not the animal has a back bone, and has nothing to do with how their body temperature is controlled. Fish and frogs for example, are both animals with vertebrates (with backbones), but they are cold blooded animals, as their body temperature fluctuates with their environment.
Ectothermic vertebrates include all classes of fish, amphibians, and reptiles. They rely on external sources of heat to maintain their body temperature. This is in contrast to endothermic vertebrates, such as birds and mammals, which can regulate their body temperature internally.
The skin is the organ of the body that helps people keep a steady temperature. When it is cold the fur on the body will help keep the body warm.
The body maintains a steady temperature through a process called thermoregulation. This involves the body's ability to regulate heat production, conservation, and loss in response to external temperature changes. The body achieves this through various mechanisms like sweating to cool down or shivering to generate heat.
