The opposite of ectothermic is endothermic. Ectotherms maintain their body temperature by behavior rather than metabolism. Endotherms maintain a warm, consistent body temperature with the use of energy.
Fishes Are Actually Ectotherms Because The Live Blow Water And Not On Land.
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.
Ectotherms are cold blooded animals. Ectotherms are animals whose outside temperature conducts its inside temperature. That's why a pet lizard has a heat lamp. It has to stay warm by its outside temperature.
ectotherms
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.
Reptiles (Lizards and Snakes) are ectotherms Amphibians are ectotherms
Ectotherms their body temperature changes with the environment
Endotherms are warmblooded, ectotherms are coldblooded, so amphibians are ectotherms.
I think the term you want is Endotherms. The opposite is Ectotherms and that means animals that can't produce their own body heat. Pls recommend me!
Yes. As a rule of thumb; all animals are ectotherms except for mammals and birds.
ectotherms' body temperature change with surrounding climate. hence to avoid exposure to cool temperatures, they hibernate.
endothermic
They are endotherms
Endotherm.
Fishes Are Actually Ectotherms Because The Live Blow Water And Not On Land.
All mammals are endothermic (warm blooded). Ectotherms are cold blooded animals like snakes and lizards.
A squid is ectotherm. Any animal except birds and mammals are ectotherms
