A positive feedback loop causes a self amplifying cycle in which a physiological change leads to even greater change in the same
iVinArrow [24]

The given statement is TRUE.

A positive feedback loop causes a self amplifying cycle in which a physiological change leads to even greater change in the same direction.

A negative feedback loop is a process in which the body senses a change, and activates mechanisms to reverse that change.

What is a positive feedback loop?

In nature, a positive feedback loop happens when the outcome of a reaction increases that reaction. A positive feedback loop pushes a system further away from the equilibrium goal if we consider a system in homeostasis. It takes place when something needs to happen quickly and does this by enhancing the effects of a product or event.

<u>Example</u> : Ripening of fruit

In nature, there is a strange phenomenon when a tree or bush may suddenly and silently begin to ripen all of its fruit or veggies. This is the first instance of a beneficial biological feedback loop we've found. If we see an apple tree with many apples, they all appear to ripen over night, going from being unripe to ripe to overripe. The first apple to ripen will mark the start of this. It releases ethylene (C2H4) via its skin when it is ripe. The apples nearby ripen as a result of being exposed to this gas. As soon as they are ripe, they too begin to generate ethylene, which continues to ripen the rest of the tree in a manner akin to a wave.

A student wants to perform an experiment to test the effect of different colored lights on the growth of basil plants. She sets
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

light is the independent variable, height of the plant is the dependent variable. Dependent is the effect that based on the independent.

Explanation:

lets break it down. 1) you want to know the effect of something you apply from one thing to another. Let say, if you grow your plants under the sunlight, the plants grow taller. In this case, the sunshine is the independent variable whereas the height of the plant/how tall it can grow is the dependent variable. 2)NOW, before i give the answer. The design of the question is not good for high school students. i think your teacher thinks "light" is the independent variable. 3)However, the question contains confounding variables in it because different lights might produce different effects to the height of the plants. If you want to test if plants are exposed to light grows taller than plants do not expose to light, then you should have all the lights are the same. 4) So, all the plants should be exposed to one certain light to avoid confounding. Confounding means that either red light and sunlight are both produce the same effect whereas the other colors do not help the plants to grow taller. 5)Your teacher should test one light at a time. So, if he is testing with all different colors of light, then light is the independent variable, and height of the plant is the dependent variable.
