The common frog is a poikilotherm and is able to function over a wide range of body core temperatures. A poikilotherm (/ ˈ p ɔɪ k ə l ə ˌ θ ɜːr m, p ɔɪ ˈ k ɪ l ə ˌ θ ɜːr m /) is an animal (Greek poikilos – 'various', 'spotted', and therme – 'heat') whose internal temperature varies considerably.

The pre-flight warm-up behavior of a moth. Insect thermoregulation is the process whereby insects maintain body temperatures within certain boundaries.Insects have traditionally been considered as poikilotherms (animals in which body temperature is variable and dependent on ambient temperature) as opposed to being homeothermic (animals that maintain a stable internal body temperature ...
Thermographic image: a cold-blooded snake is shown eating a warm-blooded mouse. Warm-blooded is a term referring to animal species whose bodies maintain a temperature higher than that of their environment.
Heterothermy or heterothermia (from Greek ἕτερος heteros "other" and θέρμη thermē "heat") is a physiological term for animals that vary between self-regulating their body temperature, and allowing the surrounding environment to affect it.
English: Body temperature poikilotherm (green line) changes with ambient temperature, while homeotherm (blue line) regulates its own body temperature which remains constant regardless of ambient temperature (red line). All organisms must thermoregulate in some way.
