The cold-blooded animals need to bask in sunshine before they can move as quickly as warm-blooded animals on a cold day because it increases their rate of metabolism.

<h3>What are cold-blooded animals?</h3>

Cold-blooded animals are those animals that are not able to regulate and maintain their internal body temperature when there is change in the external environment.

Example of cold-blooded animals are snakes and turtles. They expose themselves to sunlight to help them with their body metabolism.

Therefore, the cold-blooded animals need to bask in sunshine before they can move as quickly as warm-blooded animals on a cold day because it increases their rate of metabolism.
