Warm blooded animals like us keep their temperature constantirrespective of their surroundings. But how do they do that? Energyshould be supplied from the inside. I assume that reactions likemaking ATP from glucose are exothermic. That means in winter ourbody reacts more. Water is absorbed by those reaction.We shouldneed more water in winter. Which is contradictory with our reallife experience.
On the other hand what prevents cold blooded animals from makingheat? Don't they need ATP? Do they use different types of reactionsto make energy? Do they have different evolutionary path? Theydon't seems very different from us.
