The correct statement is:

**Ectotherms cannot insulate (stop heat loss from) their bodies but can only control their body temperature by changing location.**

Ectotherms rely on external environmental conditions to regulate their body temperature, often by moving to different locations, while endotherms can generate their own heat and have physiological mechanisms for insulation and temperature regulation.
