The most appropriate reason should be the conduction of air.

Temperature could drop because of conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction by direct contact, convection if the air move to the nenonate and radiation by electromagnet waves.
If the neonates don't get blow up by the AC directly, the temperature drop would because of the contact with the air. In this condition, it is best to cover the patient with a blanket so the contact will be minimized.

The right answer is decreased nonshivering thermogenesis.

The increase in metabolism allows an increase in the production of heat. Newborns use their brown fat as a source of heat, it is a non shivering thermogenesis.

The second mechanism for increasing heat in humans is increased muscle tone and shivering, but in the newborn there is no chill.

tekilochka [14]
3. It's because of the heat underneath the crust of the Earth. Because heat rises, the molten rock and such underneath the crust rises to the top and then the movement underneath causes things on top to move. 

4. Plates are the different sections that the lithosphere has been cracked into. These plates once all fit together as a giant plate called Pangaea. 

5.  An earthquake is a sudden, sometimes violent shaking of the ground, as a result of the shifting of tectonic plates, or volcanic eruption. 

6. On the magnitude scale, earthquakes range from 2.5 or less (usually never felt but strong enough to be detected by seismograph) to 8.0 or higher. Causes extreme damage; enough to destroy whole cities at once if close enough to the epicenter. 

7. Depends on what kind you're looking for. I'd look it up for your specific topic.

8. To apply a forces to something, usually resulting in a stretch.

9.  The action of compressing something, to flatten or squeeze by pressure

10. A strain on the layers of something because of pressure, resulting in the shifting of those layers.

11. In areas undergoing extension or stretching. It's when the crust is extended. 

12.  The hanging wall drops relative to the footwall.
