If we drink ethanol like a fish, we run the risk of poikilothermia. Assume a drunkard gets thrown out of a bar into the cold, where his internal core temperature drops 10°C over ten minutes. Ignoring the direct effects of ethanol, what percentage change of metabolic rate would you estimate to occur directly from temperature change? Assume original temperature to be typical body temp. MUST SHOW WORK.
