Explain the difference between animals that are regulators and those that are conformers. 2. the example in the text is related to temperature regulation. would ectotherms be regulators or conformers? 3. throughout the text, a common theme has been regulation of homeostasis by feedback loops. we discuss feedback loops again as we look at hormone levels. what is meant by a set point?

The difference in animals that are regulators and those which are conformers is that an animal that is regulators use an internal mechanism which is to control internal change in the face of its external fluctuation. In short we can say they are independent. While conformer animals, they match their internal conditions to change according to with the external changes Some animals may regulate internal conditions while others conform the environment.

A good nonliving example of temperature regulation is to control its own temperature. Ectotherms are conformers while endotherms are regulators.

The setpoint is the particular value of maintaining at it or near this allows the animal to achieve homeostasis.

answer: ice crystals in air

the water from the water body or another source of water gets evaporated as water vapor as an effect of heat on water. these water vapor rises in the upper layers of the earth atmosphere under high atmospheric pressure. the atmospheric pressure of these water molecules starts to decrease due to the effect of cold air. the invisible water vapor condenses into visible water droplets and ice crystals.these ice crystals and water droplets being less denser than the surrounding air floats on air as clouds.
