Your family is expanding in number, and so you decide to sell your current home and upgrade to a larger home. You estimate that you can sell your current home for $100,000 and can buy a larger home for $475,000. You plan to use the entire $100,000 sale proceeds as a down payment on the new home and will finance the remainder for 15 years at 4% nominal annual interest compounded monthly. What is your estimated monthly mortgage payment

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
