The right answer to this question is option D. Changes in the response of the hair follicle to dihydrotestosterone

   First of all, what is a negative feedback? Well, it's something that happens when there's a lot of something inside your blood, this "something" could be a hormone for example.

   But what does the negative feedback do to your system? That's simple, for example, if there's too much of a hormone, your blood will take that into the place where it was made in the first place, and that's how your body will know that you don't need that hormone to be produced anymore, because once that happens, a signal is send to your brain that warns it that that hormone is not needed anymore, then the production stops or slows down.

   So, about the question, option D is the right one just because of that, the body is producing a lot of a hormone, in this case it's dihydrotestosterone, and the brain recognized it after this hormone reaches the right point, and then the production slows down.

Where does your blood become oxygenated ("picks up" oxygen)?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

C. The lungs

Red blood cells pick up oxygen in the lungs. Blood travels away from the heart and lungs through the arteries. Red blood cells drop off oxygen to the cells through tiny tubes called capillaries. Blood then returns to the heart through the veins and the cycle begins again.
