Which of the following is a symptom of hypothermia?

Sweating
Increased heart rate
Uncontrollable shivering
Hot, dry skin

The correct answer is: Uncontrollable shivering

Uncontrollable shivering is a common symptom of hypothermia. When the body's core temperature drops, shivering is the body's way of trying to generate heat through muscle activity. This involuntary response is an early sign of hypothermia and indicates that the body is trying to warm itself up. Options A, B, and D are not symptoms of hypothermia. Sweating, increased heart rate, and hot, dry skin are more indicative of conditions like heat exhaustion or dehydration, rather than hypothermia.
