- You are studying a large tropical reptile that has a high and relatively stable body temperature. How do you determine whether this animal is an endotherm or an ectotherm? (A) You know from its high and stable body temperature that it must be an endotherm. (B) You subject this reptile to various temperatures in the lab and find that its body temperature and metabolic rate change with the ambient temperature. You conclude that it is an ectotherm. (C) You note that its environment has a high and stable temperature. Because its body temperature matches the environmental temperature, you conclude that it is an ectotherm. (D) You measure the metabolic rate of the reptile, and because it is higher than that of a related species that lives in temperate forests, you conclude that this reptile is an endotherm and its relative is an ectotherm.arrow_forwardSkeletal muscles account for approximately 43% of the typical body mass. At rest, they use about 18% of the BMR. Of the total energy burned by the skeletal muscle, only 25% is used for work, and this is the muscular efficiency. What happens to the remaining 75% of energy? Choose the best answer. It is reabsorbed and stored for later use. It is transferred as electrical energy from the muscle to muscle. It is converted to heat to warm the body. It is used to make more ATP.arrow_forwardIs Thermal Homeostasis of a Gold Fish similar to thermal homeostasis in human? If not, what is the difference?arrow_forward

Its secretion is controlled by a negative-feedback system between the concentration of glucose in the blood and the insulin-secreting cells. Therefore, which of the following statements is correct? (a) A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further lowers blood glucose concentration. (b) An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn lowers blood glucose concentration. (c) A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn increases blood glucose concentration. (d) An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further increases blood glucose concentration. (e) None of the preceding is correct.arrow_forward
