In general :
less sensitive to cold, but more sensitive to heat.
It has to do with the insulating properties of fat, and surface to volume ratios.

Can a material gain energy and not change temperature?
Yes quite possible. This occurs at the change of state. As water gets changed into steam heat will be supplied but the temperature would remain at the boiling temperature.
What is the sensitivity of an instrument?
The sensitivity of an instrument is the smallest amount it can measure, of whatever it's built to measure.Anything smaller than the sensitivity of the instrument, and the instrument doesn't even notice it.For example, a laboratory scale can measure the weight of a hair, but a truck scale can't. We say that thelaboratory scale's sensitivity is much smaller (or lower) than the truck scale's sensitivity.
A change in the temperature of the core would affect?
Movement of mantle and crust
How would you define viscosity - index?
The viscosity index refers to the measure of the change of viscosity with a change in temperature.
Is temperature the only thing that affects density?
It is the easiest way to affect the volume which would change the density. However, if you increase the pressure but keep temperature constant the volume will also change. Any change in volume affects density.
Would an obese person be more or less sensitive to temperature change?
They would be more sensitive to heat and less to cold. The fat in your body acts as a 'coat' or jacket would. Imagine wearing heavy coat in the summer.
Is there a material that will change color when a part of it comes in contact with a liquid And when it loses contact with the liquid it changes back to the original color?
I dont knao of an liquid sensig material but perhaps one of the temperature sensitive materials would do if the liquid you are sensing does not have the same temperature as the substrate on which you coul apply the liquid crystals that change color according to temperature (there are many in a wide array of temperature sensitive ranges)
Where would you plant crops that are sensitive to low temperature on a hilly region?
On the hillside.
How do you make thermometers sensitive?
You may increase the heat transfer rate to make it more sensitive to environment such as introducing air flow through thermometer in case of measuring air temperature. It can also design thermometer to be more sensitve with better heat sensitive material and thinner insulation wall. Introducing medium into contact surface (such as oil or water in thermowell) would speed up heat trasfer and make it more sensitive to temperature change.
If temperature is allowed to change in an experiment the temperature would be a?
The answer is variable.
If i have the initial and after temperature how would i be able to find the change in temperature?
You subtract the initial from the after, and the result is the change. If the initial temperature is 50º and the after is 70º, then the change is +20º.
Why aluminium does not used for micrometer frames?
Aluminum is to sensitive to temperature changes and would cause inacurate readings.
A person diagnosed with milk allergy would be sensitive to the milk's?
protein Lactose
How the temperature difference will change if you are near an ocean?
how the temperature difference would change if st. louis were next to an ocean
What would you expect to change a liquid density?
temperature of the fluid.
What is the delta triangle?
Delta means "change in"For example: Delta T means "change in temperature". To calculate this it would be (final temperature) - (initial temperature)
A change in the rate of enzyme action in aquatic invertebrates would most directly result from a change in what?
temperature of the water
