The reptile's body temperature rises when the external temperature rises. When the temperature drops, so does his body temperature. If a reptile feels cold because the external temperatures have made his blood cold, he'll lie in the sun to warm up. However, if the external temperature is too high, he scurries under a rock, dives in a pool or finds some kind of shade where he can cool down. Reptiles and other animals with ectothermic systems are vulnerable to extreme changes in temperature because they can't control their temperatures internally. They can control their body temperatures only by moving to an environment with a suitable ambient temperature.

Actually when the temperature of the enviroment changes, the body temperture of a reptile changes wih it. You wouldn't see the temperature decrease in a reptile when the enviroments temperature increases would you? Remember a reptile is cold blooded, so this question is a fairly easy one to answer. The answer "It will always decrease :)" Is WRONG. That is one thing that is really easy to see. So yeah. When the temperature of the enviroment changes, the body temperature of a reptile changes.
And even though I might have bad grammer and spelling, I know what I'm saying.
The blood temperature of a reptile is typically influenced by its environment and can vary. Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. This allows their blood temperature to fluctuate based on the surrounding environmental conditions.
A lizard is a reptile so there for its body temp. changes to room temp.
Yes.
Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. This is why they are sometimes referred to as "cold-blooded." Their body temperature fluctuates with their environment.
Cold blooded animals cannot regulate their own body temperature. Therefore, it changes with their environment.
Any animal whose body temperature is regulated by it's environment (reptile, some fish, etc.)
An animal whose body temperature changes with the temperature of the environment is called an ectotherm. Ectotherms rely on external sources to regulate their body temperature, such as basking in the sun or seeking shade to cool down. Examples include reptiles and amphibians.
Ectotherms their body temperature changes with the environment
Homeostasis, which is the maintenance of the conditions in the cell or within the body that maintain life, despite changes that may be occurring on the outside of the body. Such as temperature. The body will maintain a internal temperature of approx. 98*6 even if it is 108 degrees or -20 below outside the body.
The layer that insulates the body from extreme temperature changes in the external environment is the subcutaneous fat layer. It acts as a thermal insulator by helping to regulate body temperature and protect against heat loss in cold conditions.
It depends on the cold blooded creature. Glad I could help!!
When your body temperature changes rapidly, it can lead to symptoms such as shivering, sweating, dizziness, and in extreme cases, heat stroke or hypothermia. Your body works to regulate its temperature through processes like sweating or shivering to maintain a stable internal environment. Rapid changes in body temperature can put stress on your body and may impact your overall health and well-being.
