Warm blooded animals generate their own heat through their metabolism.

Cold blooded animals need warmth of the environment to bring their bodily temperature to normal temp.

The main difference between a cold-blooded animal and a warmblooded one is that the warmblooded one has a physiology that includes mechanisms that heat and keep the body warm. The cold-blooded animal lacks these things and its body temperature will change in response to the weather (hot sun, snow) and what the animal can do to avoid the effects of that weather (like a lizard sunning on a rock early in the moring or hiding in the shade at noon).

Warm blooded animals have a constant temperature, and can live in cold temperatures. Cold blooded animal's blood temperature depends on their environment's temperature.

Yes, lye is a strong alkaline substance that can cause burns on the skin of snakes as well as humans. If a snake comes into contact with lye, it can suffer from chemical burns and other skin irritations.

Crocodiles use their teeth to catch and grip prey, tear apart flesh, and consume their food. Their teeth are designed for holding onto prey as they drag it into the water to drown or eat it.

"Under the current system of classification, the answer is no, birds and reptiles are in different classes. This classification is based on a scheme that has been generally accepted for many years. Scientists today are pretty sure that what we now call birds evolved from a reptilian ancestor, and that feathers, a unique feature of birds, are actually just highly modified scales. Some would say that to separate birds and lizards is like separating bats from the class mammalia, just because they can fly." -Ken Burton on eNature.com

birds are not reptiles . they are included in a separate class called AVES. but birds have for sure evolved from reptiles. there is evidence in an ancient bird called archaeopteryx. it was a bird with reptilian features.
