Answer:

Explanation:

The complete question is as follows :

Animals that maintain internal body temperature using heat generated by their own metabolism are called:

A)thermoregulators.

B)hibernators.

C)aerophiles.

D)endotherms.

E)dormants.

  • An animal that is capable of maintaining a body temperature that is metabolically favorable for the organism is known as an endotherm.
  • The body temperature is maintained by an endotherm by using its internal body capacity to generate heat rather than depending on the ambient temperature.
  • Some of the mechanisms used by endotherms to maintain a suitable internal body temperature include shivering, uncouple oxidative phosphorylation, sweating, flushing, etc.
  • The endotherms include birds and mammals.
  • The ability to perform endothermy is owed to the presence of a large number of mitochondria that enables the organism to increase the rate of metabolism to generate heat as and when required.

What two organs are involved in maintaining water and ion balance in a bony fish
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The two organs that is responsible for ion exchange in bony fishes are gills and kidneys. They maintain the ion balance in the body of bony fishes.

The kidneys in the fishes are comparatively very small and they excrete a very small amount of urine to balance the ion in the body of the fishes.

The gills maintains the constant flow of water in the body of the fishes to compensate the ions in the body of the fishes in water, called as osmoregulation.
