Nature & Animals

Which process triggers heat production when bats arouse from torpor?

A)Skeletal muscle shivering thermogenesis
B)Increased renal water reabsorption
C)Elevated cutaneous evaporative cooling
D)Enhanced hepatic glucose synthesis

💡 Explanation

Shivering thermogenesis increases heat production due to rapid muscle contractions releasing energy because skeletal muscles contract; therefore shivering increases metabolic rate rather than evaporative cooling which dissipates heat.
