The correct option is C Aves and mammals
Aves and mammals are homeotherms. Homeotherms are warm-blooded animals. They are able to maintain constant body temperature irrespective of the external temperature.

Fishes, amphibians and reptiles are poikilotherms or cold-blooded animals. They cannot maintain constant body temperature. Their internal temperature varies with the external surroundings.
