Answer: The correct answer is -

1. Mammals

A-endotherm

2. Fish

B-ectotherm

Explanation:

Ectotherms are the animals whose body temperature depends on external environment, such as  heated rock surface or sunlight (such as repltiles, fishes, amphibians, and invertebrates).

On the other hand, endotherms are the organisms that can regulate their internal body temperature and it is not dependent on the external sources (such as mammals like human beings).
