Why does our skin shiver during winter?

Open in App

Solution

Our skin shivers during winter:
During shivering, muscles contract and relax, producing a large amount of heat.
This heat produced keeps our body warm. Hence we shiver during winter.
It's the automatic response to tighten and relax the muscles rapidly to warm up.
