उत्तर

In order to maintain the body temperature constant in very cold conditions in winter, heat production is increased by enhanced metabolic rate and increased muscular activity. Shivering and chattering of teeth involves a lot of muscular activity. That is why we shiver and our teeth chatter in winter in order to increase heat production in the body.
