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.

How do endothermic and ecothermic reactions differ?

Endothermic reactions absorb heat from the surroundings, causing a decrease in temperature, while exothermic reactions release heat into the surroundings, causing a temperature increase. Endothermic reactions require energy input to proceed, while exothermic reactions release energy during the reaction.

Are Agnatha warm or cold blooded?

Agnatha, which includes jawless fish such as lampreys and hagfish, are generally considered to be cold-blooded (ectothermic). This means their body temperature is largely determined by the surrounding environment. They do not have the physiological mechanisms to regulate their body temperature internally like warm-blooded (endothermic) animals do.


Why are fish from the class Agnatha considered primitive?

Agnatha means 'no jaws', and they really don't have jaws, although they do have teeth. They also have no stomach, and no boney skeleton. Their skeleton is cartilagineous, like the elasmobranchs.


Are all animals endothermic?

Not all animals are endothermic (actually). The reptilian family is not endothermic and can survive without the warm-blood. Mostly, mammals are endothermic and not usually the reptile class.
