Do cold blooded animals need sun to warm their blood?
Asked by Wiki User
Yes, cold-blooded animals rely on external sources of heat, such as the sun, to regulate their body temperature. This process is known as thermoregulation and is crucial for their metabolic functions. Without access to warmth from the sun, cold-blooded animals may struggle to maintain their body temperature and overall health.

Are moles warm or cold blooded animals?
Asked by Wiki User
Moles are warm-blooded animals, which means they can regulate their body temperature internally. This allows them to maintain a stable body temperature regardless of external conditions, unlike cold-blooded animals which rely on their environment to regulate their temperature.
How do cold blooded animals breath underwater?
Asked by Wiki User
Cold-blooded animals like fish extract oxygen from the water using specialized organs called gills. The gills have thin membranes through which oxygen is absorbed from the water into the animal's bloodstream. This allows them to extract oxygen from the water to support their respiratory needs in an aquatic environment.
What kind of frogs live in swamps?
Asked by Wiki User
Various species of frogs can be found in swamps, such as green tree frogs, bullfrogs, leopard frogs, and pickerel frogs. These frogs are specifically adapted to the swamp environment, with some having webbed feet for swimming and others having camouflage to blend in with their surroundings. Swamps serve as important habitats for these frogs due to the abundance of water and vegetation.
What goes in and out of the external nares?
Asked by Wiki User
Air moves in and out of the external nares, also known as the nostrils. During inhalation, air enters the respiratory system through the external nares, where it is filtered, humidified, and warmed before reaching the lungs. During exhalation, air exits the respiratory system through the same external nares.
What are the functions of a fetal pig's external nares?
Asked by Wiki User
The external nares in a fetal pig allow for the intake of air, helping in respiration. They also play a role in the sense of smell, as pigs have a well-developed olfactory system.
What is the biggest tortoise in the world?
Asked by Witchwinx98
A Leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea), was found washed up on Harlech beach, Gwynedd Wales in 1988. It was autopsied and found to weigh 914 kilos (2,016 pounds) with a length of 9 feet.
Sadly this beautiful creature was trapped in fishing nets which caused it to drown before being found.
Next in line is the Galapagos turtle (Geochelone nigra) being the largest land dwelling turtle (more likely or properly being called a tortoise) with full grown adults weighing up to 900 pounds and growing as long as 6 feet.

What do snakes use their tongues for?
Asked by Wiki User
Snakes use their tongues to collect chemicals in the air which they transfer to a special organ in their mouth called the Jacobson's organ. This helps them to "taste" the environment, locate prey, and navigate their surroundings.

In which main global biome do you find animal which are cold-blooded?
Asked by Wiki User
Cold-blooded animals can be found in various global biomes, but they are most commonly found in tropical rainforests due to the warm temperatures that help regulate their body temperature. Other biomes where cold-blooded animals are prevalent include deserts, grasslands, and wetlands.
If turtles turn on their backs do they die?
Asked by 12345AG
No, turtles do not necessarily die if they are turned on their backs. However, they may struggle to right themselves, which could put them at risk in certain situations such as extreme weather or if predators are present. It is important to help the turtle if you come across one in this situation.
Asked by Wiki User
Yes, seeds need water to start the germination process. Water helps to activate enzymes that break down stored nutrients in the seed, allowing it to sprout and grow. Once the seed has germinated and roots have developed, a consistent water supply is needed for the plant to continue growing.
