Countercurrent heat exchangers are more useful for ectotherms to allow their body temperature to match the environment endotherms to allow the body's core temperature to remain stable endotherms to allow their extremities to remain at an elevated body temperature in the cold poikilotherms that need to have different body temperatures ectotherms to permit them to maintain constant body temperature
The main difference between ectotherms and endotherms is how they obtain food to provide for their metabolism. the source of their body heat. whether they conserve or eliminate body heat. whether they control their body temperature.
Which of the following statements best summarizes the difference between ectothermic and endothermic organisms? Group of answer choices Ectotherms absorb external heat, but endotherms use metabolic heat to maintain a warm, steady body temperature Ectotherms are warm-blooded, but endotherms are cold-blooded Endotherms control their temperature, but ectotherms have no control over their temperature Endotherms are warm-blooded, but ectotherms are cold-blooded
