Answer:
1) Hibernation is a state of inactivity and metabolic depression in endotherms. Hibernation refers to a season of heterothermy that is characterized by low body temperature, slow breathing and heart rate, and low metabolic rate. A much more detailed explanation can be found on Wikipedia: Hibernation .
2) What is hibernation? ... During hibernation, an animal's body temperature, heart rate, breathing, and other metabolic activities slow down significantly in order to conserve energy. While resources are scarce, hibernation allows animals like bears, chipmunks, and bats to use their stored energy much more slowly.
3) Other animals such as the skunk and racoon are not considered true hibernators, as they wake up in winter to feed and their body functions do not change as much. Since they only sleep for a little bit at a time, the term 'dormancy' or light sleeping' is used to describe their behaviour.
4) The urea produced by their fat metabolism is broken down and the nitrogen is re-used by the bear to rebuild protein. The main difference between hibernation and torpor is that during torpor, the animal is able to wake up easily if hurt or threatened by predators.
