Which metabolic consequence arises when environmental temperature rapidly increases mid-hibernation for a ground squirrel?

💡 Explanation

When environmental temperature rapidly increases, the ground squirrel increases its metabolic rate via shivering thermogenesis because temperature gradient reverses. Therefore lactic acid buildup causes acidosis, rather than arrhythmia, dehydration or further hypothermia, since these each involve different metabolic/environmental triggers.
