Definition and other additional information on Endothermy from Biology-Online.org dictionary. ... Endothermy, which probably evolved separately in the groups, almost requires that the pulmonary and somatic loops be separate, which works with a septum in the ventricle. It's most likely convergence, not ancestral.

The Evidence for; Endothermy in Dinosaurs ... Dr. Bakker and others have presented numerous lines of evidence for dinosaurian endothermy — some reasonable, some not so reasonable. We shall list some of these and objectively mention some problems with each.

Our results support the hypothesis that endothermy was widespread in at least larger non-avian dinosaurs. It was plausibly ancestral for all dinosauriforms (perhaps Ornithodira), but this is perhaps more strongly indicated by high growth rates than by locomotor costs.

One of the great unresolved controversies in paleobiology is whether extinct dinosaurs were endothermic, ectothermic, or some combination thereof, and when endothermy first evolved in the lineage leading to birds.

By using avian development as a model system for transition from ectothermy to endothermy, we show that, in contrast to the ectothermic state, in the endothermic state the organism is more resistant to heat but relies less on HSPs as a first-line thermoprotective mechanism.
