Ectothermic animals, also known as cold-blooded animals, generally do not perspire like mammals do. Instead, they rely on environmental factors to regulate their body temperature, such as basking in the sun or seeking shade. Some ectotherms may have other methods of thermoregulation, like behavioral adaptations, but they do not produce sweat to cool down.

What is the difference between ectothermic and ectothermic animals?

Ectothermic refers to "cold blooded" animals: that is, they have little or no regulation of their internal temperature. If it's cold out, they're cold, if it's warm, they're warm. Endothermic refers to "warm blooded" animals (like us). They keep their internal temperature the same no matter what the outside temperature is.


What are warm-blooded or ectothermic vertebrates animals?

Ectothermic animals have an internal body temperature that changes with the temperature of its surroundings. A vertebrate is an animal with a backbone. A warmblooded animal has a constant internal temperature so WARM-BLOODED ANIMALS ARE NOT THE SAME AS ECTOTHERMS.


Do animals perspire the same way as humans?

No, animals perspire differently than humans. While humans primarily sweat through their skin to regulate body temperature, animals such as dogs cool themselves by panting, horses sweat mostly through their neck and chest, and birds may release excess heat through their respiratory system.

Is class agnatha endothermic or ecothermic?

Its Chondrichthyans and it depends on the species. Mostly they are ectothermic but a small number of exceptions exist. Some sharks, like the thresher shark, can warm parts of its body some what, this means a few C above water temperature not like how warm blooded animals regulate temperature. So in short.Ectothermic.
