Question

When body temperature rises, a center in the brain initiates physiological changes to decrease the body temperature. This is an example of
a. diagnostic regulation.
b. positive feedback.
c. negative feedback.
d. nonhomeostatic regulation
e. fever

Answer 1

Answer:

Negative feedback.

Explanation:

Body's homeostasis is maintained by two feedback mechanism known as positive feedback and negative feedback. Most processes in our body is controlled by the negative feedback mechanism.

The negative feedback mechanism in which the final product of the reaction decreases the further secretion of that product. In case of the body temperature rise, brain canter decreases the body temperature is controlled by negative feedback. The high level of the substance decreases its further secretion in case of maintenance of body temperature.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
