The Vietnamese word "biến nhiệt" refers to the concept of being "poikilothermic," which is used in biology to describe certain animals that cannot regulate their body temperature internally. Instead, their body temperature fluctuates with the temperature of their environment.

Basic Explanation
  • Biến nhiệt means that an animal's body temperature changes based on external conditions, such as the weather or the temperature of their habitat.
Usage Instructions
  • You would typically use "biến nhiệt" when discussing animals like reptiles, amphibians, and fish, which rely on their environment to stay warm or cool.
  • Example Sentence: " rùa những động vật biến nhiệt." (Fish and turtles are poikilothermic animals.)
Advanced Usage

In a more advanced context, you might discuss the ecological and physiological implications of being "biến nhiệt." For example, how these animals adapt to changing environments or how climate change impacts their survival.

Word Variants
  • Động vật biến nhiệt: This means "poikilothermic animals."
  • Nhiệt độ biến nhiệt: This refers to "temperature of poikilothermic" animals.
Different Meanings

While "biến nhiệt" primarily relates to poikilothermic animals in a biological context, it can also be used metaphorically in some contexts to describe anything that changes with external conditions (like emotions or market trends).

Synonyms
  • Động vật máu lạnh: This means "cold-blooded animals," which is often used interchangeably with "biến nhiệt."
  • Động vật không điều hòa nhiệt độ: This translates to "animals without temperature regulation."
Example Sentences
  1. "Khi trời lạnh, những động vật biến nhiệt thường tìm nơi ấm áp để giữ nhiệt." (When it’s cold, poikilothermic animals often seek warm places to retain heat.) 2.
  1. (sinh học) Poikilothermic
