Answer:

Friend (endotherm) will need to eat more calories than snake (ectoderm) to maintain constant body temperature.

To generate heat endotherms convert the food they eat into energy through the process called metabolism. Most of the food that the endotherms eat is converted into fuel to maintain a constant body temperature. Endotherms need to eat more food than ectoderms of the same size to maintain their constant body temperature.
