Conformers and regulators

The maintaining of an organism's metabolic rate is affected by abiotic factors such as temperature, and

Organisms can be categorised into two broad groups 鈥 conformers and regulators.

  • conformers - dependent upon the changes in the external environment
  • regulators - can control their internal environment regardless of external environmental change
