Detailed explanation-1: -Effect of Temperature on Metabolic Rate. It has been known since early in the 20th century that a rise in temperature is associated with an increase in metabolic rate. Each degree C rise in temperature is associated with a 10–13% increment in oxygen consumption (18).

Detailed explanation-2: -Body heat is generated by metabolic activity, and a decrease in activity inevitably leads to a decrease in core body temperature. If you find yourself reaching for your heated blanket more often, it may be due to a slow metabolism.
