No, catfish are not endothermic. Endothermy uses methods such as shivering, sweating, panting, storing and burning fat to keep the body temperature at a constant rate.
Catfish, and indeed all fish are actually poikilothermic. This means that there body temperature rises and falls with their environment. When a fish is in cold water their body temperature falls to match it, and when it moves to warm water it rises again. Fish can move deeper in the water too cool down and swim higher when they need more warmth. By doing this, the fish is able to regulate its body temperature.
birds mammals fish(also ectotherms)
The black bear is endothermic
They are endotherms
An Endotherms can regulate their body temperature by producing heat through metabolic processes. Birds and mammals are Endotherms as well as some fish.
Mammals and birds are endotherms.
Animals that are not endotherms are typically ectotherms, meaning they rely on external environmental conditions to regulate their body temperature. This group includes reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates like insects and crustaceans. Unlike endotherms, ectotherms do not generate sufficient internal heat and often bask in the sun or seek shade to maintain their optimal temperature.
They are endothermic, because ectothermic dosent have to do with any mammals. :)
yes
No, they are ectothermic
Endotherms. We self-regulate our internal temperature, like other mammals and birds. Ectotherms' temperatures are dependent on the ambient environment, like reptiles and fish.
