These ectotherms ("cold blooded"), such as a snake or turtle, control temperature by moving to the sun or into the shade. As a result, their temperature fluctuates considerably through the day and night. Other animals generate heat internally. These endotherms (mammals and birds) burn fat and sugar to convert them to heat and so stabilize their body temperatures.
