the original effect of the stimulus or reduces its intensity ex: blood
| | | | | | | | | | | |



glucose levels, body temperature
| | |

,positive feedback mechanism - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-initial response
| | | | | | |



exaggerates the original stimulus so that further responses are even
| | | | | | | | | |



greater ex: blood clotting, labor contractions
| | | | |




components of a feedback loop - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-receptor, | | | | | | | |



control center, effector| |




receptor (first component) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-sensor that

the set point, analyzes the input it receives by comparing it to a set
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



point and determines an appropriate response, information then flows
| | | | | | | | |



from the control center along the efferent pathway to the third
| | | | | | | | | | |



component


effector (third component) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-carries out the
| | | | | | | |



control center's response to stimulus, results of the response then feed

so that the whole process is shut off, or enhancing it (positive)
