Why do endothermic organisms have a higher BMR than ectotermic organisms?

Because we are warm blooded, ectothermic are cold blooded and can controll thier body temp. Therefore they have a lower BMR ( Basal metabolic rate )

Effects of temperature and pressure on exothermic and endothermic reaction?
An increase in temperature favours an endothermic reaction over an exothermic one as an endothermic reaction takes in the energy from the higher temperature more easily than the exothermic reaction gives out even more energy to the surroundings. Therefore an increase in temperature increases the level of completion and viability of an endothermic reaction, and the opposite for an exothermic reaction. An increase in pressure favours any reaction that forms fewer molecules from more molecules. It does not necessarily favour an exothermic or an endothermic reaction as it depends on the number of molecules on either side of the reaction. An endothermic reaction involves the breaking of bonds to a greater extent than an exothermic reaction, so an increase in pressure would, in a lot of cases, favour the exothermic reaction more than the endothermic reaction.
What organ system is endothermic and exothermic?
i think so individuals are endothermic or exothermic rather than organ system.
How us heat included in the equation of an endothermic reaction?
This question is oddly worded, but I am assuming that the author means to ask "in chemical equations for endothermic reactions, is the change in energy (delta H) positive or negative?". For endothermic reactions, heat is absorbed during the reaction, so the energy of the products is higher than the energy of the reactants. Since dH = H(products) - H(reactants). Therefore, dH is positive.
Is it true that Organisms such as deer that eat low on a food chain generally eat food with more of the initial energy that entered the system than organisms at higher trophic levels such as wolves?
true. for plato
What takes in more energy than it gives off?
An endothermic reaction. A plant.
Which reaction is the product higher in energy than the reaction?
Endothermic
Do endothermic organisms temperatures rise and the temperatures rise?
endothermic means it is absorbing heat. the heat within the organism would be warmer than the surrounding environment over time.
What is the sign of the enthalpy change for an endothermic reaction?
Endothermic reaction: In an endothermic reaction, the products are higher in energy than the reactants. Therefore, the change in enthalpy is positive, and heat is absorbed from the surroundings by the reaction therefore enthalpy change show positive sign in a endothermic reaction..
How do the body temperatures of the two organisms change as the ground temperature changes?
thermoregulation occurs in ectotermic & endothermic organism according to the change of ground temperature.Generally ectotermic / poikilothermic animals obtain heat from the enviroment than the metabolic rate to raise their body temperatures is bcoz,they have low metabolic rate & unable to maintain their body temperature within the narrow limits using physiological mechanism.Example of organism are non-vertabrates,fish, amphibia & reptiles.Lizard are reptiles, which we noticed that they are nocturnal.this is bcoz during day time they move to dark area / find shelter under rock in order to obtain heat energy from the surrounding or enviromemt.So they able to save energy to prey at night time.However, endothermic or homoiothermic animals rely on metabolic heat to maintain their body temperature able to maintain the body temperature by physiological mechanism.example are bird & mammal's.This is how different kind of organism maintain the body temperature according to the enviroment.
Do endothermic reaction have reactants with more energy than its products?
Kinetic energy has more energy than products.
What happens when the number of organisms is an environment is higher than the carrying capacity?
then the organisms must compete for living space The population will decrease.
In an endothermic reaction are the products more or less stable than the reactants and explain your answer?
The products of an endothermic reaction are less chemically stable. They required an input of energy to create so naturally they are at a higher energy state.
Are there differences between major groups of organisms to how fast they respire?
Yes, respiration rates for large organisms are generally higher compared to small organisms. Large organisms require more oxygen than small organisms.

What is the level of danger gamma rays poses to living organisms?
The level is higher than most people.
What is is endothermic?
if any reaction requires heat to proceed itself than the reaction is called endothermic reaction..
