Human body maintain homeostasis and respond

Reference no: EM13529860

This might be a bonus question on the test, so! In biology class weare talking about how the human body maintain homeostasis andrespond to cold/heat stress. The hypothalamus sends a message tothe muscles to generate shivering; however, babies can't shiver (atleast, that's what we learned). Can someone explain to me why?
