Answer 1

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

Explanation: Ectotherms rely mainly on external heat sources and behavioral changes (basking, seeking shade) to regulate temperature; they generally lack internal metabolic heat production and insulating adaptations that endotherms have.
