3. Heat-sensitive film, which captures the body temperature of organisms on film, is used to photograph the
mammals and reptiles of a pet store during normal store hours where temperature is controlled and then
during a heat wave where the electricity went out.
This lizard blends into the background because
its body stays about the same temperature as
its surroundings.
A human hand stays warm
because a person produces
and releases a large amount
of metabolic heat.

Endotherm and ectotherm. Photo of a chameleon (an ectothermic lizard)
being held by a human (an endotherm). The image was taken using heat-
sensitive film.
