Ectotherms are cold-blooded animals, including insects, whose body temperature is controlled by their outside environment or surroundings. Ectotherms can release their heat or be affected by their environment. Although insects do not let a large amount of heat out to their environment, they let some out and they are affected by their environment, fitting all the criteria of an ectotherm.
