Which outcome occurs when constraints limit induced torpor?

💡 Explanation

ATP production decrease raises reliance on anaerobic metabolism, because constrained induced torpor (shallow hibernation) reduces metabolic suppression by limiting ATP resynthesis; therefore, byproduct metabolite concentrations increase rather than controlled rates occurring during uninterrupted torpor.
