Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When the air is super cold, it will take away your body heat, leaving you feeling – you guessed it – cold! As part of the process of homeostasis, shivering is one way that your body tries to produce more warmth and make up for all the heat it’s losing to the cold air.

Detailed explanation-2: -: to shake slightly because you are cold, afraid, etc. It was so cold that I was shivering. She was shivering [=trembling] with fear/excitement.

Detailed explanation-3: -When your body does become too cold, its automatic response is to tighten and relax the muscles in rapid succession to warm up. This is also known as shivering.

Detailed explanation-4: -We will use homeostasis of body temperature control (also called thermoregulation) to illustrate this. If the body is exposed to cold external temperatures and the internal temperature drops below the set point, the brain sends a message to the muscles. Muscles then shiver in order to produce heat.
