Detailed explanation-1: -All mammals and birds are capable of generating this internal heat and are classed as homoiotherms (ho-MOY-ah-therms), or warm-blooded animals. Normal temperatures for mammals range from 97° F to 104° F. Most birds have a normal temperature between 106° F and 109° F.
Detailed explanation-2: -Warm-blooded animals are defined as animals that can regulate and maintain constant internal body temperature. They can survive in any temperature range as they can adapt to it easily.
Detailed explanation-3: -Homeothermy refers to thermoregulation that maintains a stable internal body temperature regardless of external influence. Higher chordates such as birds and mammals are examples of homeotherms or warm blooded animals (endotherms ).
