The mouse, because it is an endotherm and therefore its basal metabolic rate is higher than the ectotherm lizard's standard metabolic rate.

<h3>What are endotherms and ectotherms?</h3>

Animals classified as ectotherms and endotherms employ several techniques to control body temperature.

Endotherms are recognized as warm-blooded creatures, whereas ectotherms are also referred to as cold-blooded creatures. Ectotherms and endotherms vary primarily in that endotherms control their body temperatures by sustaining bodily functions, but ectotherms depend on external sources like sunlight to do so. Ectotherms include invertebrates, fish, amphibians, and reptiles while endotherms include mammals and birds.
