Question

State whether the following statement are true false.

(v) Humans are ectothermal.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Answer: False

• All mammals including humans are warm blooded (endothermal: body heat generated from inside); so are birds. They all maintain a constant body temperature even if it is very cold or hot outside.
• The body temperature of cold-blooded animals (ectothermal) organisms fluctuates with the environmental temperature. Example: frog, snake, and many more.
