Which consequence occurs when prolonged muscle inactivity exacerbates hypothermia?

💡 Explanation

Reduced adaptive thermogenesis capacity occurs, triggering reduced heat production because muscle inactivity limits shivering thermogenesis, rather than increased heat dissipation; therefore, less heat is generated, rather than anabolism. Shivering provides metabolic heat in cold.
