What do you think would happen if negative feedback mechanism absent in our body?​

Answer:

Negative feedback has the function of controlling and regulating the processes of a system. Without such a mechanism there would be no balance in the body. As such, it is responsible for maintaining balance within the system, counteracting or modifying the consequences of certain actions, that is, it seeks to reduce the effects of external aggressions.

Explanation:

When an internal or external variable of the body changes with respect to normal limits, a response is triggered that reverses the change. In this case, we are in the presence of a negative feedback. In negative feedback there are normally three parties involved: the so-called receptor, the control center, and the so-called effector. The receptor is the organ or tissue that intervenes in the negative feedback process, recording the values of some variable of the organism; these variables can be very different, for example temperature, blood pressure or blood glucose concentration. The information collected by the receiver is continuously sent to the control center. When the received values go out of the normal ranges, the control center will send orders to the effector organs so that they begin to function in a certain way that helps to return the values of the variable to the normal values in basal state.Negative feedback is the main control mechanism of homeostasis and as such is essential to keep the different parameters of the body between the values in which it can perform its functions. If negative feedback didn't exist, we would die. In fact, when negative feedback control mechanisms fail, we have to resort to medicine to help the body maintain homeostasis.

Explanation:

Microglia are phagocytic, which means that they are cells that can engulf other cells and particles. Microglia protect the CNS by engulfing foreign particles and bacteria.

Which line in the graph above best illustrates an effect of the carbon dioxide level in the blood on breathing rate before, duri
sukhopar [10]

The answer is; graph A

Breathing increases during exercise because the body is demanding more oxygen for the muscles. The hypothalamus detects the increased carbon dioxide in the blood dur9ng exercise and its commands the lungs to breath faster and deeper. When exercise stops, the body is restored to resting through homeostasis.
