An ectotherm is an animal whose body temperature depends on external sources. Hippos cannot regulate their own temperature, they live in water during the day and feed at dusk when the temperature is cooler. They are therefore ectotherms
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.
ectotherms' body temperature change with surrounding climate. hence to avoid exposure to cool temperatures, they hibernate.
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.

Endotherm.
All mammals are endothermic (warm blooded). Ectotherms are cold blooded animals like snakes and lizards.
