Question

You are touring several ecosystems, including an icy coastline in the Arctic, and a dry desert in the southwest United States. Do you predict that you will observe equal numbers of ectotherms and endotherms in all ecosystems? Explain your prediction.

Answer 1

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, we observe different number of ectotherms and endotherms in Arctic, and a dry desert ecosystems because there is difference in the temperature of both the environment. Due to difference in temperature of the external environment, the number of ectotherms and endotherms are present in that ecosystem. More number of ectoderms are present in the desert ecosystem where the ectoderms survive better than endotherms so we can say that number or population is different.
