Answer 1

Cold-blooded animals are the animals that are not capable of regulating their body’s temperature according to the temperature of the surrounding environment – example) a snake will lay in a warm area w sun to warm up because it’s body doesn’t produce its own suffecient heat.

Warm-blooded animals are the animals that are capable of maintaining a nearly constant body temperature irrespective of the temperature of the environment. Ex) Whether it’s 20 degrees out or 90 degrees the human body will stay at a consistent 98ish degrees ( or whatever your core temperature is) irregardless of your environment and will fight physiologically to stay in that range.
