Detailed explanation-1: -Animals like fish, amphibians, most invertebrates and reptiles are ectothermic poikilotherms since they get heat from the environment and let their body temperature fluctuate.
Detailed explanation-2: -Amphibians and reptiles are ectotherms that control their body temperature through external sources such as basking in the sun to warm up. Ectotherms are sometimes known as “cold-blooded” animals, but this is not an accurate term since the blood of a snake basking on a hot rock during a summer afternoon is not cold.
Detailed explanation-3: -In vertebrates, endothermy is typically associated with birds and mammals while fishes, amphibians, and reptiles are generally typified as ectotherms.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cold-blooded animals cannot generate their own body heat, but they do regulate it by changing their environment. Alligators and other reptiles often lie in the sun to warm themselves.
Detailed explanation-5: -Core body temperatures ranged from 24.7°C to 25.4°C. Ambient air temperatures ranged from 24.6°C to 25.8°C. The body surface temperatures ranged from 24.9°C to 26.6°C. The surface temperature readings ranged from 24.8°C to 26.6°C.
