The Human Body: Part One — Test

Question 16 • Biology

Once the body has begun shivering, what happens to make it stop shivering?

Answer
A
When body temperature returns to normal, the respiratory system sends a message to the skeletal system to stop shivering.
B
When body temperature is below normal, the nervous system sends a message to the skeletal system to stop shivering.
C
When body temperature returns to normal, the nervous system sends a message to the muscular system to stop shivering.
D
When body temperature is below normal, the respiratory system sends a message to the muscular system to stop shivering.

Explanation

Shivering is an involuntary response that helps generate heat when body temperature is too low. The nervous system monitors temperature; when it returns to normal, it signals the muscles to stop shivering. So the correct choice is “When body temperature returns to normal, the nervous system sends a message to the muscular system to stop shivering.”
