Brian claims that only the muscular system is involved when body temperature drops. He says that shivering occurs when the body’s muscles contract rapidly, producing heat, and that this muscle action keeps the body warm.

Answer:

I think it is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Homeostasis is involved in this, and shivering does happen when you're cold. If shivering happens when you're cold, it is, I believe, trying to warm you up and keep you in balance.
