Great question!

When your body starts to feel cold, the tiny nerves in the skin send messages to our brain.

Cold can be uncomfortable, especially in warm-blooded animals like humans.

In this case, the brain responds by sending messages to our skeletal muscles and creating a reflex actions.

Our muscles start to contract and expand, in the process, creating warmth in our body.

Shivering is necessary for the body to maintain a homeostasis and protect bodily functions.
