A(n)__________ Cannot Tolerate a Wide Ambient Temperature Range

Question

A(n)__________ cannot tolerate a wide ambient temperature range.
A)ectotherm
B)poikilotherm
C)eurytherm
D)stenotherm

Accepted Answer

A stenotherm is an organism that is only able to tolerate a narrow range of ambient temperature. Ectotherms, on the other hand, regulate their body temperature through external means such as basking in the sun or seeking shade. Poikilotherms are organisms whose body temperature varies with their environment, while eurytherms can tolerate a wide range of temperatures.
