Endotherms generate most of the heat they need internally. When it's hot outside, they decrease metabolic heat production to keep their body temperature constant. Because of this, the internal body temperature of an endotherm is more or less independent of the temperature of the environment. 
Contrarily, Ectotherms' body temperature primarily depends on external heat sources. That is, ectotherm body temperature rises and falls along with the temperature of the surrounding environment. So if it is hot outside their body temperature rises as well.

Answer:

Sample Response: Endotherms are able to maintain a constant body temperature. An endotherm may respond to a hot summer day by sweating or panting. The body temperature of an ectotherm, on the other hand, changes with its surroundings. In order to stay cool, an ectotherm must move somewhere cooler like the shade of a plant or rock or seek cool water to lay in.

Why is density a derived unit?
Triss [41]
Density is a derived unit because it's not reported as a pure unit. (A pure unit would be something like kilograms or meters.) In contrast, the units for density are kg/m3. Density is the ratio of mass to volume; mass has the unit 'kilograms' (kg) and the unit for volume is cubic meters (m3).

Density is an intensive property, which means the amount of the material is irrelevant. The density of a substance is constant.
