[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

When exposed to cold temperatures, the body reacts by shivering in order to generate heat and maintain its internal temperature. This physiological response is a way for the body to stay warm and balanced with the external environment. Additionally, blood vessels constrict to reduce heat loss and keep vital organs warm. The body may also produce more brown fat, which generates heat when activated in response to cold temperatures. Ultimately, these responses help the body adapt and survive in cold weather conditions.
