Endotherms and Ectotherms • Endotherms- have constant body temperature (Tb) and maintain elevated Tb by endogenous heat production • High VO2, high heat production, low thermal conductivity (good insulation) • high metabolic cost, 5x metabolism of ectotherms • Mammals, birds some reptiles and insects
Ectotherms or poikilotherms - thermal condition outside their bodies determine their Tb • - their Tb are high in warm environment, but low in cool environment • - they adjust Tb by means other than heat production and heat loss • Low VO2, low heat production, and poorly insulated • fish, reptiles and amphibians
Homeotherms and Heterotherms Homeotherms – thermoregulate their Tb by physiological means, e.g. the rate of heat production, rather than just by behaviors - thermoregulation endotherms
Heterotherms • Exhibit characteristics of endotherms and ectotherms. • Temporal heterotherms-hibernators, daily torpor in birds and mammals. Some snakes, fish, and insects. • Regional heterotherms-usually poikilotherm that maintains a high core temperature. Eg., bumble bee.

Heat Transfer Between Animals and • Their Environment • Conduction:transfer of heat between objects in • contact with each other • Convection:transfer of heat contained in a mass • of gas or liquid by the movement of that mass. • e.g wind • Radiation:transfer of heat by electromagnetic • radiation takes place without direct contact • between objects • Evaporation: transfer of heat by allowing water to • evaporate from moist body surface
Thermal neutral zone • Range of Ta in which endotherm does not need to alter VO2 to maintain constant Tb. • Upper critical temperature (UCT)-Ta above which energy-requiring heat loss mechanisms are used- sweating, panting. • Lower critical temperature (LCT)- energy-requiring heat production mechanisms are used- shivering, non-shivering thermogenesis.
Countercurrent Heat Exchange • “opposite flow” • A process that depends on a specialized morphological arrangement of the blood vessels carrying blood to and from appendages • Transfer of heat between two closely juxtaposed fluid streams flowing in opposite directions • e.g. rete mirabile ---wonderful rete
Q10 • Q10 is the rate of a reaction at a given temperature compared to its rate 10o C lower. • For most reactions, Q10 is 2-3X
Acclimation • Laboratory-induced temperature acclimation in ectotherms. • Acclimation in whole animals occurs through the acclimation of individual cells and tissues.
