Detailed explanation-1: -Cold-blooded animals include reptiles, amphibians, fishes, insects, and other invertebrates. These animals are also called poikilothermic animals.
Detailed explanation-2: -Animals that cannot generate internal heat are known as poikilotherms (poy-KIL-ah-therms), or cold-blooded animals. Insects, worms, fish, amphibians, and reptiles fall into this category-all creatures except mammals and birds.
Detailed explanation-3: -Not all fish are cold-blooded. In 2015, researchers with the NOAA Southwest Fisheries Science Center revealed the opah, or moonfish, as the first fully warm-blooded fish.
Detailed explanation-4: -Amphibians and reptiles are together called herpetofauna, or “herps” for short. All herps are “cold-blooded, ” which means they lack an internal thermostat. Instead they must regulate body heat through their interactions with the environment.
Detailed explanation-5: -All reptiles, including snakes, lizards, turtles, tortoises, alligators, and crocodiles, some insects such as the busy dragonflies and bees, amphibians such as frogs, toads, and salamanders, as well as fish, including sharks, are all cold-blooded animals.
