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.

i believe it is "they are not used up by reactions" as the answer to your question, text me back if this is correct because i just learned this.

producers within ecosystems are essential as they are at the base of the food chain. plants are examples of producers. they use the process of photosynthesis to capture light energy and use it to convert simple inorganic substances (carbon dioxide and water) into organic substances (glucose).
