Endotherms usually, though not always, maintain a constant body temperature that is higher than that of the environment.

An endotherm is an organism that keeps its body at a metabolically favorable temperature, primarily by using heat produced by internal bodily functions rather than relying almost entirely on ambient heat. Endothermic animals must generate their own heat in order to maintain an optimal body temperature.

Shivering is an example of a special-function muscular exertion, as is uncoupled oxidative metabolism within brown adipose tissue. Only birds and mammals are known to be universally endothermic animal groups. Endothermic species include the Argentine black and white tegu, leatherback sea turtles, lamnid sharks, tuna and billfishes, cicadas, and winter moths.

How is oxygen taken into the body?​
UNO [17]

Answer:

Oxygen enters the body in the mouth and nose, passes through the larynx and the trachea. The trachea splits into two bronchial tubes, which lead to smaller tubes that lead to 600 million alveoli, which are small sacs surrounded by capillaries. The capillaries take oxygen into the arteries, and the oxygen-rich blood is then pumped into every cell of your body. Once the oxygen has been absorbed, carbon dioxide and water are eliminated through the lungs.

Explanation:

good luck!
