Shivering is a reflex triggered in response to hypothermia in which muscles shake in an attempt to generate heat. The energy expended during the shaking becomes heat.
shivering with cold
Shivering is an involuntary muscular response from the body, triggered by cold. The "shivering" muscles are trying to internally generate heat, to help keep you warm.

Relaxing your body will only make you colder,and shivering is your bodies response when it is cold and is ment to warm your body up a little.There is no way shivering can make your body colder.
I believe your body is responding to the cold by shivering to warm you up.
Shivering when you get cold is an example of thermogenesis, a process that helps to generate heat in the body to maintain a stable core temperature. It involves muscle contractions that produce heat as a byproduct of metabolism, specifically through the breakdown of fuel sources like glucose. So, while shivering is a physiological response to cold, it is not directly an example of metabolism itself, but it is related to metabolic processes.
Yes, but it's unlikely. A shivering cat just means that.. well, the cat is cold! Older cats with arthritis are prone to shivering.
Moderately cold; cold and raw or damp so as to cause shivering; causing or feeling a disagreeable sensation of cold, or a shivering.
No. Shivering is the body's defense against cold. The rapid contraction and relaxation of the muscles produces heat in the body. If you are shivering while cold and then stop even though you are still cold, that is extremely bad, and means that your body is going through hypothermia.
Shivering generates heat by increasing muscle activity, which creates friction and generates heat as a byproduct. The rapid contraction and relaxation of muscles during shivering produce heat to help warm up the body when it is cold.
shivering is said to warm your body when cold.
When you are shivering. Or when you are unconscious
