Gastropods occupy both marine and nonmarine environments. Many are herbivorous grazers while most are active carnivores. Their shell has a row of respiratory shells along one edge. A snail as pictured here is a common form of a gastropod.

Endotherm
Endotherms are animals that are able to produce a sufficient amount of heat energy to maintain a high core temperature. These organisms are different from ectotherms because they regulate their body temperature using internal heat. Fish are a prime example because they can adjust their body temperature to the temperature of the water.
