How is endothermy advantageous to humans?
Endotherms can use metabolic heat to regulate their body temperature. In a cold environment an endotherms high metabolic rate can generate enough heat to keep its body substantially warmer than its surroundings. We as humans are endotherms, and are able to maintain a high and very stable ingternal temperature. This is a huge advantage over ectotherms because they must gain most of their heat from the environment. Remember it is the source of heat that classify an animal endotherm or ectotherm. Mammals, birds, and some reptile and fish are endotherms. So, a couple of important advantages of being endotherms is the ability to generate a lot of heat metabolically, and able to adapt to biochemical and physiological adaptations like an elaborate circulatory and respiratory system that enable endotherms to perform vigorous activities for a longer period of time. Gennerally though endotherms need to consume more food than ectotherms to maintain their metabolic rate.

Which of the following is an important advantage of experiments over observational studies?
The main possible advantage is that in an experiment, it is possible to control some of the variables so that it is easier to measure the effect of key variables. In observational studies, no such control is possible.
