Solution
The correct option is B Tortoise
A cold blooded animal is called a poikilotherm. All amphibians and reptiles are cold blooded. Their body temperature is influenced by the temperature of the environment. Tortoise is a reptile and hence cold blooded. The rest (whale, Echidna and fowl) are all warm blooded, and hence, they are able to maintain their temperature constant.
