The body regulates ists temperature bu a feedback sustem that includes temp sensors, afferent nerve fibers that carry sensory information to the brain, a hypothalamic control center, effernt nerve fibers that are principallyr part of the autonomic nervous system, and thermal effectors that eirther control heart transfer between the body and environment or regulate the body's rate of heat production.

Thermal sensors over the skin surface and in the preoptic anterior hypothalamus repsond to changes in local temperature. Take the skin, for example, it has anatomically distinct warmth and cold receptors. when the body experiences hypothermic situations it will respond sympathetically from the intergration centers in the hypothalamus by causing an involuntary muscle contration (shivering). Shivering is important because it can increase the metabolic rate from 3 to 4 times the normal rate. The body also actssympathetically by causing vasoconstriction to prevent cooling. Parasympathetic control of the voluntary muscle of the skeleton is unknown.

During cold season muscles receive messages from the brain (the hypothalamus) to cause shivering. This produces heat as the cells in the muscle respire more as they do more work. Respiration is an exothermic reaction which gives out heat so more heat is produced which warms up the body.
The converse happens during hot climate.
Sympathetic nervous system supplying neves to small blood vessels in muscles cause constriction of blood vessels, cooling and shivering.
Parasympathetic system dilates blood vessels of skeletal muscles , more blood to muscles., heating
