Decreased sympathetic activity to the skin is not associated with cold exposure. In fact, sympathetic activity to the skin increases during cold exposure, leading to vasoconstriction and decreased blood flow to the skin, which helps to conserve body heat. Shivering and hunching over are also common responses to cold exposure. Therefore, option E can be eliminated.
