Textbook Question
Chapter 33, Problem 4RQ
Which type of animal maintains a constant internal body temperature?
- endotherm
- ectotherm
- coelomate
- mesoderm
Expert Solution & Answer
Trending nowThis is a popular solution!
Students have asked these similar questions
Ectotherms
use more energy to maintain their body temperature than endotherms
are better able to carry out intense, long-duration activity than endotherms
have a more constant internal body temperature than endotherms
gain most of their heat from external sources
have a higher metabolic rate than similarly-sized endotherms
The questions refer to one of the four types of tissues found in animals. Match each statement with the appropriate tissue type.
Holds body together _
provides structural support_
tendon
moves body parts_
lining of internal cavities_
detects stimuli _
skin_
brain _
covers the body surface_
relays information_
WORD BANK: nerve, muscle epithelial, connective
The ability of all living things to maintain a fairly constant internal environment (like blood glucose, which is regulated by the hormones insulin and glucagon in humans) is called:
responsiveness
reproduction
adaptation
metabolism
homeostasis
