🇧🇷  Quando sentimos frio ou somos tocamos intimamente, podemos sentir pequenos calombos por toda a pele.
Os calombos são chamados de arrepios; são pequenos músculos do nosso corpo que tensionam nossos pelos e os mantêm eretos. Esses calombos são uma resposta involuntária a emoções intensas.
Os arrepios têm uma função prática para os animais. Quando os pelos de um animal se arrepiam, isso faz com que ele pareça maior e ajuda a protegê-lo contra predadores. Uma camada elevada de pelos também pode ajudar a manter um animal aquecido quando está com frio. De acordo com especialistas, os arrepios não são uma reação de sobrevivência para os humanos. Eles são o resultado de uma descarga de adrenalina desencadeada por uma emoção extrema.
