The body temperature of conformers changes with ambient temperature. Doesnt that affect their metabolism?
Dear student,
​Please find below the solution to the asked query
Metabolism is affected by a no. of abiotic factors such as salinity, temperature etc.
Conformer is an organism whose internal environment or state is very much influenced by external factors. So, their metabolism (physiological process) is also influenced when there is a change in temperature (external factor). With the change in ambient temperature, their body temperature changes accordingly and hence, their metabolism is affected.
Generally, metabolic rate is higher at high temperatures.
