Question

How are the graphs of a body chemical controlled by negative feedback and a chemical controlled by positive feedback similar

Answer 1

• There is a proper mechanism of controlling the levels of various kinds of hormones and chemicals in our body called as positive feedback and negative feedback.

• In a very simple language you can understand it as whenever there is a release of a particular hormone or chemical inside the body in very huge amount then the negative feedback of the body is activated the production of that particular hormone or chemical is stopped and vice -versa for negative feedback.

• Explanation:positive feedback and negative both the feedback mechanism are achieved to maintain the proper homeostasis.

• Example: release of clotting factor after blood loss is a positive feedback and a hormone is released and then suddenly there is a increase in hormone b, then the amount of hormone a will decrease this is a negative feedback.
