Gemma Tate · Answer 1

Answer: Hypothermia

Explanation:

Hypothermia is the condition which is caused when the body losses heat faster than it produces heat. The person under this condition feels very cold as the body temperature reaches below 95 F (35 C).

It can be adversely dangerous as it is not a normal body temperature at which the body works.

? The person can also get strokes and they can shiver for a longer period of time as the homeostasis of the body is not able to control the temperature of the body.

Lilah Chang · Answer 2

Since his body cannot bring his temp back to 98.6 and remain in homeostasis, he is risking developing Hypothermia.
