<u>Answer</u>:

Option B. a positive feedback loop

<u>Explanation</u>:

This happens when the product of the reaction is more than that of the reaction. In homeostasis this type of positive feedback loop that can move away. It exacerbates the effect of small disturbance. It also strengthens the change in physiological condition body rather than reversing the change. A slight change in the normal range will result in greater change, and hence the system diverts more from the normal range. It can only be considered normal with definite end point.

Why are there so many satellites orbiting Earth at this time?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

There is about 6000 satellites surrounding our earth. A satellite orbits Earth when its speed is balanced by the pull of Earth's gravity. Without this balance, the satellite would fly in a straight line off into space or fall back to Earth. Satellites orbit Earth at different heights, different speeds and along different paths.

Dual innervation refers to an organ receiving A) both sensory and motor nerves.B) both sympathetic and parasympathetic innervati
Talja [164]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Dual innervation is a biochemical process by which an organ receives two different types of stimulation simultaneously. The principal function of dual innervation is to maintain the homeostatic balance of the body system. Dual innervation is brought about by two different systems, the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nerve systems. Although the actions of these two nerve systems are opposites to one another, they work together to bring balance to the body system. Without dual innervation the homeostatic system of the body can not be maintained.
