Abstract
Animals and plants continuously interact with the environment, which does not remain constant for any long period of time; all Poikilothermic animals live and develop under the influence of fluctuating temperature, light, oxygen level, and other factors. However, reproduction and development of any species remains normal only within a certain range of the factors’ fluctuations. Outside this range, the reproduction stops, development is disturbed and embryos or prelarvae eventually die.
