Why does your snake pee on you when you hold him?
It's a defense mechanism. Reptiles don't normally have that much contact with people, but they DO get used to being handled over time. Also, if it is your pet snake, taking it out to hold warms it up and gets it moving, which promotes bathroom time.
How long can a snake survive without a body is it possible to extend its life by giving it nutritions?
A snake cannot survive without its body as its organs are necessary for essential bodily functions. Without a body, it is not possible to extend its life with nutrition as the body is required to process and utilize the nutrients.
Cephalonchordates are endotherm or ectotherm?
An ectotherm, from the Greek εκτός (ektós) "outside" and θερμός (thermós) "hot", refers to organisms that control body temperature through external means. For example, many reptiles regulate their body temperature by basking in the sun. The opposite of ectothermy is endothermy, where heat is primarily generated as a result of internal metabolic processes.Many ectotherms are also poikilotherms, meaning their temperature varies over a wider range than homeotherms.Ectotherms are animals that warm their bodies by absorbing heat from their surroundings. In most ectotherms, the body temperature fluctuates with changes in the surrounding temperature; these ectotherms are called poikilothems. The body temperature of snakes, for example, cools in cold weather and warms up in hot weather. However, most marine fishes and invertebrates live in water that stays at constant temperature. Their body temperature, therefore, does not change, and these ectotherms are therefore considered homeotherms.
Does a cold blooded animals body temperature stay the same all the time?
No. Because even though the temperature is hot their body temperature stays cold and doesn't rise up.
How do you make snake throw up?
by scaring it. the snake will throw up what it just ate
What help the birds to maintain a constant body temperature?
They fluff up their feathers trapping air which is heated by body temperature. Sort of like a wetsuit it traps water and it warms up by the body temperature. Hope this helps
What does the human body do to warm up?
shivering warms the body up.
Why is cotton suitable to wear in cooler months?
Because it warms you up, cotton made clothes absorb heat from the body leaving the body on a warm temperature.
How do the body's systems maintain control of temperature?
If you get too hot then you sweat which cools you down, if you get too cold then you shiver which warms you up.
What are the adaptations of a roadrunner?
What l find quite amazing is that when the Roadrunner wants to conserve body heat at night, it slows its bodily functions and cools down the body temperature and becomes lethargic, but when dawn comes it must rise up its body temperature. It does this by exposing a patch a skin between its wings which warms up the body and waits for its body temperature to become normal.
Does reptiles have a steady body temperature?
Reptiles' body temperature fluctuates according to their surrounding air temperature. In cold temperatures (pre-dawn) snakes will be torpid, and only active once the rising sun has warmed the snake up.
When the temperature of the environment changes the body temperature of a reptile is?
When the temperature of the environment changes, the body temperature of a reptile also changes, as reptiles are ectothermic (cold-blooded) animals. This means they rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature. As the environment warms up, their body temperature increases, enhancing their metabolic processes, while cooler conditions can slow them down. Consequently, reptiles often bask in the sun to warm up or seek shade to cool down, demonstrating their dependence on environmental temperatures.
What happens to the number of plankton in a pond when the weather warms up?
The plankton die due to the temperature chnage
What are some main uses of thermometers?
In the medical field, thermomaters are used to take the temperature, which can signal if you have an infection(body warms up from white blood cells fighting the infection), and many other uses
Why is the air we breathe out warmer than the air we breathe in?
When we breathe in, the air is at room temperature, while our body warms it up when it enters our lungs. As we exhale, the air has absorbed heat from our body, so it exits slightly warmer than the air we breathe in.
Does body temperature increase or decrease after shower?
Body temperature may temporarily increase after a hot shower due to the heat exposure, but it should return to normal as the body cools down. After a cold shower, body temperature may decrease as the body responds to the cold stimulus, but again it should return to normal once the body warms up.
What should a warm up routine do to your body temperature?
Increase the body temperature.
