Homeothermy, homothermy or homoiothermy is thermoregulation that maintains a stable internal body temperature regardless of external influence. This internal body temperature is often, though not necessarily, higher than the immediate environment.

What Homeothermic means?

: having a relatively uniform body temperature maintained nearly independent of the environmental temperature : warm-blooded There are several mechanisms by which homeothermic animals increase their heat production, including shivering, sympathetic nervous system activation and stimulation of thyroid hormone secretion.

What do you mean by Homoeothermic animals?

Birds and mammals have a unique characteristic in the animal world: They are the only organisms able to maintain a constant internal body temperature regardless of external temperatures, which is why they are called homoeothermic or endothermic organisms.
