depends how cold it is. as the temperature decreases the body take more drastic measures to gain heat. first, hair all over you body stand on end in a hope of trapping heat between them. which is called goosebumps. if that doesn't work the body will shiver to try to get warm. in colder temperatures the body will try to protectthe vital organs by trying to save all the body heat for them. heat will slowly leave from your arms and legs, even causing them to get frostbitten.

When cold receptors adapt, they become less responsive to continual cold stimulation. This adaptation helps the body maintain a balance in temperature perception and prevents sensory overload. It allows the body to focus on new, changing stimuli rather than constantly signaling the presence of cold.

What happens your body gets cold?

When your body gets cold, blood vessels near the skin's surface constrict to conserve heat, causing your body temperature to drop. The body may shiver to generate heat, and metabolism increases to help maintain core temperature. Prolonged exposure to cold can lead to hypothermia, where the body loses heat faster than it can produce it.


Who does hypothermia affect?
