One of the reasons is because of a difference in the release of thyroid hormone. The thyroid is an endocrine gland that regulates the body's metabolic rate. If it increases the release of thyroid hormone, it increases the body's metabolic rate and vice versa.
There are disorders where the thyroid releases too much or too little thyroid hormone. Hypothyroidism (too little) results in a metabolism that is too slow. Hyperthyroidism (too much) results in a metabolism that is very fast.
