Question

Explain how the thermostat in your house uses a negative feedback system to maintain your home's temperature.

Answer 1

Given what we know, we can say that the home thermostat system does in fact work using a negative feedback loop,

What is a negative feedback loop?

A negative feedback loop is a regulatory system in which a product is produced until there is too much of it, the presence of this increased amount of product then acts as a stimulus to decrease the production.

The home thermostat is a negative feedback loop in that it:

• First generates heat.
• Then the heat reaches the desired temperature.
• More heat is produced.
• The thermostat notices the temperature is above the intended value.
• It stops producing heat.

Therefore, we can confirm that since the thermostat uses a sensor to detect too much heat in the room and uses that to regulate the production of said heat, the home thermostat system does in fact work using a negative feedback loop.
