Biology
1 answer:
galina1969 [7]4 years ago
8 0

Answer: The body maintains homeostasis by positive and negative feedback mechanism.

Explanation:

The body maintains the internal temperature and metabolism with respect to change in environment.

In case the temperature outside is very cold and the body starts shivering by the movement of skeletal muscles, this is done to maintain the temperature inside body. This is positive feedback.

When the temperature inside the body is maintained, then body stops shivering. This is negative feedback.

This is how the body maintains homeostasis.
