conformer
regulators
simply, Regulator uses internal control mechanism to have the best temperature it needs for its body. on the other hand, conformer find a place with a good temperature to live in, because they can't regulate.
Reptiles (Lizards and Snakes) are ectotherms Amphibians are ectotherms
Ectotherms their body temperature changes with the environment
Endotherms are warmblooded, ectotherms are coldblooded, so amphibians are ectotherms.

Yes. As a rule of thumb; all animals are ectotherms except for mammals and birds.
I am assuming you mean Ectotherm? Ectotherms are animals that rely on the environmental temperature for their metabolism VS Endotherms that produce their own body heat. Ectotherms become more active in warmer temperatures and sluggish in cooler ones. The exact temperature that affects metabolism is different for different species, so this answer is in general terms. Yes, Ectotherms become more active at higher temperatures. But like Endotherms can be killed by temperature extremes. Some examples of Ectotherms would be most fishes, reptiles, arachnids and the like.
Ectotherms and poikilotherms are similar in that both rely on external environmental temperatures to regulate their body heat. Ectotherms, which include reptiles, amphibians, and many fish, do not generate significant internal heat and depend on their surroundings to maintain their body temperature. Poikilotherms, on the other hand, are organisms whose body temperature fluctuates with the ambient environment, which can include both ectotherms and some endotherms that can have variable body temperatures under certain conditions. Essentially, all ectotherms are poikilotherms, but not all poikilotherms are necessarily ectotherms.
